Yes, its almost as though Alan Foal went out of his way to make it look nasty. Unfortunately, attractive design has never been his strong point, which is why I get annoyed when lazy journalsts bang on about how the current map maintains the iconic status of the original. They have obviously not bothered to take a close look at it.Epsom to Waterloo looks like a slow indirect journey on the map, staggering off drunkenly towards Motspur Park, almost coliding with Thameslink at South Merton. No excuse for this. There is plenty of empty space that could be used in the area, but the Tramlink 'grey zone' is not helping. Even so, I can see lots of ways of improving this. Shame I can't 'vectorise' it, then it would be a few minutes work. |
