does this mean there will be like another 40 threads about this when they put the thames back in?

i don't really remember it having a thames to be honest - does it make a difference when you're underground?

its just an excuse to hide the zones.. so fakken blatant!

Actually saw it on the platform last night. They've got more room for the DLR, going down from Canary Wharf, that's where they've made room.
Glad Boris was said to be 'furious'.

why no zones?

so naive people accidentally go into higher zones without knowing about the costs

in certain areas yeah, because you might end up the wrong side and have a 30 minute walk or more to get to the otherJimbo82 - yeah it's much easier to read if you know where the themes ismodernstyle

because you might end up the wrong side and have a 30 minute... walk? wait? swim? if you were going to judge your overground journey from the tube map you'd be a fool anyway. scale is so distorted it's completely useless as a map. it's sole purpose is to help calculate your journey between stations. If removing the blue stripe in the middle makes that calculation easier then it's a good thing.
i'm upset the thames has gone only from a "nostalgic love of london" view point. but then the original tube map didn't have the thames - so we're back to the classic design that the rest of the world copied.
good.

A 'furious' Boris Johnson has ordered the River Thames to be reinstated on the London Underground map after Transport for London decided to redesign it.

God what a joke, piece of shit scum of the earth government cunts. As if boris 'im a fucking cunt' johnson didn't have a say in this in the first place. Removing the zones is a fucking liberty

Basically this is either money grabbing scum of the earth cunts (see above comment) or form over function moron designers.

to be frair I doubt very much that the words "you know if we remove the zones, we';ll scam money off confused people" ever came up at any meeting which arrived at this, that conspiracy pish, very british. Its just an attempt to simplify it which has gone wrong. I'm new in london and the thames is a totally essential part of the tube map

One must know when one strays south of the river.
