Default Own journeyplanner

Well, I did start gathering data and making my own journeyplanner to take
with me on a mobile, and I am able to find quickest routes through most
lines already... but some question to the line setup however remain, I am
certain you will have no difficulties helping me with them:

1) Shepherd's Bush: There is a station by that name on Central and on
Hammersmith & City - are that really different stations? Can someone change
there? How far apart are they? And... why the naming?

2) Paddington: Seems to be triple. On H & C as an isolated station, but with
the circle to allow transfers (to where). Then one circle on the Bakerloo,
and another one on the District/Circle section. How is the setup there, how
many different Paddingtons are there and how can one interchange from one to
the other? Do you leave the station / ticket gates to change?

3) Tower Hill / Tower Gateway: I remember having changed there from DLR to
Circle or so, different stations close to another, right?

4) Bank / Monument: Bank is for Waterloo, Central and Northern, Monument is
Circle and District? How far are they? Different stations really or one big
one connected sub level?

5) Central line Hainault Branch: How do the trains run there from central
london? Either all the way straight to Epping, or ... to Hainault, but which
way? What I mean is: How do I reach Chigwell or leave? Does the train loop
through Hainault going to Woodford and back to London? Or is Hainault
reached from both sides and terminus station? And how do trains go from
Hainault, both directions to London or just one??

Quite a lot of questions for a project that does make little sense in the
first place... but it is a lot of fun learning the network layout, so I
might as well get it correct... Thanks if one wants to help!

Ralf


Btw: I did not yet create routings for the DLR, the Northern or District
line... Their layout, Kensington Olympia, Richmond and Wimbledon are full of
questions too... but one at a time!
