Default Overground/Southern line diagrams

Thinking about the stations recently transferred (on the 20th) from SN to LO
in advance of the ELL service being extended to Crystal Plalce and West
Croydon. Presumably in the intervening period these may be provided with
full LO style signage, including the 'underground style' line of route maps.

Now these suburban stations still retain their debranded 'Overground
Network' style line diagrams, obviously quite useful for any SN pax
unfamiliar with those routes - but will these remain or be removed?

Do the TfL 'sign standards' allow for the stations dual served by SN and LO
to have all this info on one diagram, or might they have to two separate
maps - which would appear to be a retrograde step. *What is the precedent
for when the Bakerloo and Silverlink Metro ran together on the DC lines -
I'm assuming Bakerloo/LO now appear on the same diagrams?


How does signage work at Shepherds Bush etc, where SN and LO already
share platforms?
