That's a fantastic map - clearly the 'new' ON map was heavily inspired
by that! Much more useful to the passenger than the current idea of
distinguishing services by TOC. Actually, I think this is a hang over
from the original NSE/London Connections map, which was the first to
divide the map by operating areas (Kent Link, South London Lines etc).
But even that used to distinguish Victoria/Blackfriars and Cannon
St/Charing Cross services from each other with different shades of
green.

It is definitely a good map - superior to the TfL high-frequency map
because it is easy to see which terminal trains end up at, and better
than the ATOC map because it doesn't force an arbritary distinction
between service of different TOCs.

The ON map is very similar, just adding in the useful frequency element.
