London Underground route finder for your journey with GoogleMaps

Hi all
I have developed a facility which allows you to find out the best
routes between two London Underground stations, try searching for it
at
http://public.ok2life.com/tube/routes
. The routes found are colour
coded to indicate line changes and National Rail stations where
available. There is also integrated Google Maps to show you the
surrounding area of each station along the paths found.
Let me know if you have any suggestion/comment for improvement.
Looks good. Maybe you should make it clearer which is the station at which
you have to change, by doing one or other of the following:
- display the change station in the colours of both lines (left hand side of
box in old colour; right hand side in new colour)
- repeat the station name: one box in the colour of the old line and then
the same name in a box below in the colour of the new line
The first suggestion is probably the better one.
I have sort of implemented the second suggestion, as it is easier to do
programatically. Let me know what you think.
