Can anyone tell me the *correct* HEX colour codes - if there are
any defined - for each LU line that could used in HTML ?
Note for uk.railway comedians - HEX here means hexadecimal *not*

should have what you need.
Do the line colours have official names? I'm captain of my local
pub
quiz team and we sometimes get asked what colour is such-and-such
a
line, but then we get into silly arguments e.g.is the Central Line
red, or orange? Red presumably, because it's the same as
'corporate
red'. But what about the Waterloo & City Line - turquoise, or pale
green?
The names are given on page 12 of the 201-page London Underground
signs manual at
http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/corporate/...al_Dec2003.pdf
as follows:
Central: red
Victoria: light blue
District: green
Circle: yellow
Metropolitan: magenta
Bakerloo: brown
East London: orange
Hammersmith & City: pink
Northern: black
Piccadilly: dark blue
Waterloo & City: turquoise
Jubilee: light grey
(The names above are all prefixed by Underground, thus "Underground
light blue" for the Victoria line.)
Interesting - thanks. On Wednesday I gave 'silver' as the colour for
the Jubilee line and this was 'correct', although I see it's
officially 'light grey'.
We still won our match with the highest score of the night - see:
