Default New map notation

There is a poster map up at King's Cross St. Pancras which uses a new
notation I haven't seen before. I suppose it goes to show just how
flexible Beck's design remains.

Certain sections of line are drawn as a sequence of coloured Xs rather
than the normal solid line. This indicates that that section is subject
to engineering works at weekends.

Certain stations have the name in a box with a yellow background and
with a symbol beside it which, I believe, is meant to represent a
workman with a drill or spade. Again, it indicates that service at that
station is affected.

Presumably we won't see either of these in the pocket maps.
