Boarding a train at Pimlico going north the southbound trains are on the
right if i face the front of the train. Somewhere between Pimlico and Kings
Cross they change to being on the left. Where do the lines go over and under
each other and is there a tube map published that would give information
like this.

Between Oxford Circus and Warren Street and back again between KXSP
and Highbury and Islington. It's so that the northbound and southbound
tracks are the same sides as the equivalent tracks at Euston, for
cross-platform interchange.

Here are two maps that show it:

I find that unusable. Is there anything that will scale up a .JPG file.
Answering my own question: not in IE, save the file and open in the
standard "Windows picture and fax viewer" which has zoom controls.

That is good!

I prefer the diagram in

I wonder why the Victoria northbound goes over the Bakerloo, before
diving under the Northern, which goes under the Central, which goes
under the Bakerloo ...

There's a famous 3D diagram of Oxford Circus station which shows the
northbound Victoria line going, plausibly but incorrectly, under the
Bakerloo.
