Default New South London rail map

It's very dishonest. A casual glance at the map suggests that there are 4
trains an hour from Slade Green to Dartford, but on closer examination the
key manages to avoid actually stating that the coloured lines imply a 4
trains an hour service.

Similarly New Malden-Surbiton.

Either St Johns to Lewisham or St Johns to Hither Green (or both) must

lack
4 trains an hour as well.

I think Selhurst - East Croydon also doesn't have 4 trains an hour.

Strawberry Hill has 4 trains an hour to Waterloo (by two different

routes),
but is not marked as such, so there is not even consistency in the

approach
they have taken.


How much effort did they (not) expend on that map I wonder.

The Bexleyheath line to Dartford doesn't have 4tph? Orpington doesn't have
4tph?


Also it would've been nice if they could've indicated the disgraceful "1tph"
service introduced by the new timetable between Lewisham and the Sidcup line
stations (19:00 - 20:00)!
