The current TfL Rail map

shows interchange with the Goblin at Forest Gate, but the new Betty map

http://www.standard.co.uk/news/trans...-a3187111.html

doesn't. Accident or design?

TfL are peddling flannel, The Standard is telling the truth.
The distance between Forest Gate Station and Wanstead Park
Station is far greater than the distances at West Hampstead.

The new Elizabeth Line map was drawn by TfL.

So, what's the consensus on the new Crossrail Line's name, the Betty?

One extremely enthusiastic supporter.
Several more or less agitated objectors.
Rest don't care.

The Liz Line, surely.

Isn't Brenda Line more accurate?

I'm hoping Unsweaty Betty will catch on.

Leaving aside the fact they are both TfL maps, your point is irrelevant
- there's no rule that says different station interchanges shown on a
map have to be the same distance as between the West Hampsteads. I think
Forest Gate to Wanstead Park is perfectly reasonable to be shown as an
interchange.

It isn't a question of whether or not it's reasonable for
an able bodied person. It's whether it's accurate or misleading.
Public transport is not exclusively for the fit and able. Nor is it
exclusively for public transport enthusiasts who swat up on
every possibility before choosing their route. Maps and diagrams
like these are studied by the ignorant and by the disabled who
need correct information.

The point I made may be irrelevant to you. It will not be
irrelevant to many less fortunate people.
