Exellent. I expecially like the London area. This cannot have been
easy.

Wow...

Really good.

I don't know if it counts, but there is a spur line from London Charing
Cross to London Cannon Street direct.

I think there may be one service in the middle of the night? (confirmation?)

No, hasn't been a regular service for years[1]. Many years ago the only
timetabled train to use it was the 0053 Charing Cross to Dartford via Cannon
Street (though if you go back to SE&CR days a high proportion of Charing
Cross trains went via Cannon Street). Even further back there was a shuttle
service between Charing Cross and Cannon Street, but this lost its
usefulness when the Metropolitan District railway reached the City. The
shuttle service also lost some of its business when an intermediate station
(Blackfriars Road, later superseded by Waterloo Junction) was opened. Before
then certain 'ladies' used a First Class compartment with the blinds down
for their 'business'.

[1] still gets used occasionally for a Charing Cross - Cannon Street shuttle
service at weekends, if the direct route from Charing Cross to London Bridge
is blocked by engineering work. However, the Thameslink plans show the
Cannon Street connection at Metropolian Junction being severed.

Wow, congratulations a lot of work! ...but Mitchum as in Mitchum Eastfields
and Mitchum Junction (west of Croydon) should be spelt Mitcham.

Indeed. It looks utterly hideous, though - all weird mashing discordant
angles. Bleugh.

I prefer the elegant clarity of the New Adlestrop Rail Atlas:

Although it can't compete for detail around London.

Also it should be Herne Hill (not Hearne), and Finchley Road & Frognal
(not Frognall).

But forget about from little nitpicks like this. That is a great
map. It must've taken you ages. Brilliant work.

Also:
- White City should be Central Line only, not also on Hammersmith &
City/Circle
- Ladbroke Road, not Ladbrook Road
- The Thames should go between St Margarets and Richmond, not between
Twickenham and St Margarets
- Bethnal Green, not Bethnel Green (twice)
