Paddington is very much south of Warwick Avenue. Yep, TfL, looks like Warwick Avenue and Paddington are level with each other on the Bakerloo line.īut no. It’s easy to think you’re moving in a mainly northerly direction at this point on the Central Line…īut you’re actually moving in a pretty westerly direction and there is categorically no sharp bend in that track. Is there nothing in this world we can rely on? 4. TfL may want you to believe you’re moving in a north-easterly direction, along with the river Thames…īut you’re actually heading slightly south. Blackfriars to Monument on the District and Circle lines. The Official Underground map illustrates Mornington Crescent on the westerly positioned branch of the Northern line.īut it’s on the east. You’re travelling north this whole time and you didn’t even know it. So, it looks like Vauxhall lies north-west of Stockwell…īut NO! It’s just north. *Seriously, we know that the tube map is a representation to help our poor Underground-frazzled brains. Be prepared for the world as you know it to be thrown into a deep, dark vortex of confusion.
Using a secret map that was created by TfL and unleashed onto the internet over a year ago, we’ve highlighted a few major issue areas. Now we know that the tube map is just an interpretation of London and is created less to be geographically accurate and more to ensure maximum clarity when traveling around.* Nevertheless, when we delved deeper, we were mind- blown to discover the differences between the tube map and the actual locations of the stations. How often do you examine TfL’s official map of the Underground? Probably not as often as me, but it’s ok – I’ve done the examining for you.
