  • Answer:

    == A true scale map of the London underground is almost impossible to look at because of it's size. That is why for almost 8 decades they only show you the schematic map. The first entry shows the underground laid out over a satellite photo of greater London. You'll get the idea when you look at it. == A true scale map of the underground in Zone #1 can be helpful (enclosed in source). Compare that to the Zone #1 schematic map. I have made some time critical errors using just the schematic map when I was running late to a show. It is helpful to keep a copy of the true scale map.

The current diagrammatic London Underground map dates from the 1930s. Prior to that, the underground lines were superimposed on a street plan of London. Now, remember, in those days, that there was no Victoria Line, no Jubilee Line and no Docklands Light Railway. Yet these maps were a disaster. There was so much detail on them that you could not read it easily. The area around Kings Cross/Euston was one paticularly bad area, as was Bank/Monument/St. Pauls. I know because I have a 1920s map in my collection. The nearest you will get these days is the AtoZ map of London, on which the various underground stations are marked. I suppose that you always mark in each line by joining up each station with a line of the colour taken from the Underground map, but, personally, I do not see any advantage in that.

you will need a very large map i don't think you realise just how many stations there are on the london underground system my suggestion is that you go to http://www.tfl.gov.uk/gettingaround/1108.aspx from here you can download a map of the London underground then you can see just how many stations there are on the system The Underground has 268 stations and approximately 400 km (250 miles) of track making it the longest metro system in the world by route length,

You can buy an A-Z which has street maps & the Underground stations are clearly marked, you can also use google maps & streetmaps if you look at this map I've pulled up of Oxford Street, the Underground stations are indicated by the red circle with the blue bar and you can see Bond Street and Oxford Circus stations on this section http://www.streetmap.co.uk/newmap.srf?x=528515&y=181108&z=1&sv=oxford+street&st=6&tl=Oxford+Street,+London,+W_1C&searchp=newsearch.srf&mapp=newmap.srf You can also use the journey planner on the Transport for London website to work out walking routes, just go to the advanced option, scroll down & choose the methods of transport you want: http://www.tfl.gov.uk/
