Got to keep the map makers and train painters in business somehow!
I noticed a cunning trick yesterday: the strip maps on the Jubilee
(probably other lines too, but i haven't checked) have been updated to
show the Overground interchanges. However, there was a sticker over Canada
Water. Already, i thought? Then i realised - the strip maps will have been
printed not showing ELL interchange at Canada Water, and stickers added to
show it. When the ELL closes, they just pull them off and have a nice neat
strip map that shows the then-current situation. It's also possible that
the underlying map shows Overground interchange at ELL, and the stickers
will be replaced with new stickers that show no interchange for the
duration of the works, which will then be removed when the line reopens.
Incidentally, i noticed the Overground shade of orange seems to be
different to the ELL one. I assumed they'd be the same. Oh well, only
matters for a couple of weeks now!
Someone remind me - why is the ELL closing for three years?
