There's a new London Connections map out with Heathrow Connect depicted

Is this in stations? Do you know if it's online anywhere?

TfL's online support for this map is rather spotty - the version in
stations (prior to this) is the 'high frequency services' one, but i can't
find this online; it was definitely available at one point, but all TfL's
links go to the previous versions. Grr. Okay, rant over!

There was/is a TfL version of the London Connections map, which is now
called the 'High Frequency Services' map when it appears at Tube
stations, or is simply entitled 'Travelcard Zones' when it appears in
leaflets. I think they've ditched the 'London Connections' name (though
the PDF file of the 'Travelcard Zones' map available from the TfL
website is called "lon_con.pdf").

However IIRC there's always been two versions of the London Connections
map, the one produced by London Transport and now TfL, and the one
produced by Network SouthEast, now ATOC - which is what I believe the
OP is referring to. The ATOC map is double sided, showing the London &
South East rail network on one side (with the London detail excluded),
and the London Connections map on the other.

I find the ATOC London Connections map more useful, at least in terms
of rail travel in the capital, than the Tube-biased TfL version (though
it does lack any indicator of which lines are high frequency, which the
new TfL 'High Frequency' map benefits from).

The ATOC London Connections map, alongside the London & South East map
and others are available online in PDF format from the National Rail
website at...

...though it would appear that the new London Connections map has not
yet been made available online, the one on the site being dated January
2005.


I have just looked at the london connections map on the page and it
does contain heathrow connect.

Indeed. The page has now been updated with the new map.
