Default The King's Cross St. Pancras nexus - a novelty tube map

I thought people here might be interested in the diagram I've made of
King's Cross and St Pancras, showing the passageways and routes around
the whole complex in the style of the tube map (I know a proper
floorplan would have been much more useful, but that turned out to be
way too hard). Links and a bit more explanation are on my blog:

Fantastic.

You were probably wise to have left the box marked 'cycle routes'
unopened!

A couple of constructive suggestions...

Perhaps the new joint Kings Cross/ St Pancras car park could be marked
- it's located underneath the Kent/ CTRL-DS platforms just off Pancras
Road. But then again perhaps the exclusion of the private car on the
diagram is intentional!

The other thing is perhaps marking the way towards Camden next to the
arrow on the top-left surface street - which, somewhat
counterintuitively, is Pancras Rd at that point, not Midland Rd,
because Pancras Rd wiggles underneath the station...

The point being that it's really not very far to walk to get from KX/
SP right into the heart of Camden.
