Carriage nearest platform exit
 
Can somebody point me to a site which indicates which carriage is
nearest the platform exit for all tube platforms. e.g. at Moorgate, the
platform exit is at the east end of the platform on Metropolitan and
Circle lines while on the Northern line, it is on the 3rd carriage
southbound and 3rd from back northbound - I take it one should not
encourage perverse use of "No exit instead of emergency" which I have
seen suggested to be a synonym for "Short cut".

Not sure there's one available on-line, but from Amazon:

I have added "The Way Out Tube Map" to my amazon.co.uk shopping basket
but may buy it from Stanfords if I pass there first. Thanks!

I googled with it and found references to a diagrammatic map where each
link and interchange is proportional to its journey time.

The Way Out Tube Map is great, and the geographic Tube map it has uses
is also nice.

Northern Line also has a useful exit via FCC.

It should be noted, however, that the Way Out Tube Map has *no*
information on the JLE and ELL, and other items thereon are completely
wrong as it hasn't been updated for quite some time.

Cheers,

Yeah, I try to make corrections to my own map when possible. It's still
better than nothing.

One thing to note is that the exits for the Met, Circle and Hammersmith
and City at King's Cross were moved to the opposite ends of the
platform when the new ticket hall was opened.

I apologise for not posting one originally. The following links to
several such maps: http://www.oskarlin.com/2005/11/29/time-travel/
