Transport for London: Underground, Overground, Elizabeth, DLR, Tramlink

[si404]

The London Underground system is ready for review: https://tmrail.teresco.org/hb/index.php?sys=gbnlu

There's some things that will need to be discussed about how we map routes and, as such, that is best done sooner, rather than later.

Overground

https://tmrail.teresco.org/hb/index.php?sys=gbnlo

Off-peak service pattern with list names and route names

Romford to Upminster route = Romford - Upminster Shuttle Liberty Line

• 2tph Romford - Upminster | LibLn | Liberty Line

Watford Junction to Euston route = Watford DC Line Lioness Line

• 4tph Euston - Watford Junction | LioLn | Lioness Line

Richmond and Clapham Junction to Stratford route = North London Line Mildmay Line

• 4tph Clapham Junction - Stratford | MilLn | Mildmay Line (Clapham Junction)
• 4tph Richmond - Stratford | MilLnRic | Mildmay Line (Richmond)

Gospel Oak to Barking Riverside = GOBLin / Gospel Oak to Barking Line Suffragette Line

• 4tph Gospel Oak - Barking Riverside | SufLn | Suffragette Line

Highbury & Islington to New Cross, Clapham Junction, Crystal Palace and West Croydon route = East London Line Windrush Line

• 4tph Dalston Junction - Clapham Junction | WinLnCla | Windrush Line (Clapham Junction)
• 4tph Highbury & Islington - Crystal Palace | WinLnCry | Windrush Line (Crystal Palace)
• 4tph Dalston Junction - New Cross | WinLnNew | Windrush Line (New Cross)
• 4tph Highbury & Islington - West Croydon | WinLnCro | Windrush Line (West Croydon)

There's also a twice daily (more on Saturdays, none on Sundays) service to Battersea Park, it would have unique track mileage (which I've clinched), but it just seems too irregular compared to the regular services in the surrounding area at 30+ times a day (if not 60+) to include - advice wanted.

Liverpool Street to Enfield Town, Cheshunt and Chingford route = Lea Valley Line Weaver Line

• 2tph Liverpool Street - Cheshunt | WeaLn | Weaver Line (Cheshunt)
• 4tph Liverpool Street - Chingford | WeaLnChi | Weaver Line (Chingford)
• 2tph Liverpool Street - Enfield Town | WeaLnEnf | Weaver Line (Enfield)

New signs forthcoming when someone makes Wikimedia Commons versions of these signs.


I don't know how they will be shown in in-car line diagrams (ie the block colour, rather than the line above) as there's zero renders of those in public.

edit: 2024-02-15 lines officially renamed

Elizabeth Line

https://tmrail.teresco.org/hb/index.php?sys=gbnxr (XR is the National Rail TOC code for the Elizabeth line).

Off-peak service pattern with list names and route names

• 2tph Reading - skip Iver, Hanwell, West Ealing, Acton Mainline - Abbey Wood | EliLn | Elizabeth Line (Reading - Abbey Wood)
• 2tph Maidenhead - skip Taplow, Hanwell, West Ealing, Acton Mainline  - Abbey Wood | EliLn | Elizabeth Line (Reading - Abbey Wood)
• 4tph Heathrow T4 - all stops - Abbey Wood | EliLnHea | Elizabeth Line (Heathrow Terminal 4 - Abbey Wood)
• 2tph Heathrow T5 - skip Southall, Hanwell, Acton Mainline - Shenfield | EliLnShe | Elizabeth Line (Heathrow Terminal 5 - Shenfield)
• 6tph Paddington - all stops - Shenfield | EliLnShe | Elizabeth Line (Heathrow Terminal 5 - Shenfield)

Peak services include trains running on the surface route into Liverpool Street terminus, which can be easily mapped by using Greater Anglia between Stratford and Greater Anglia instead. There are limited trains (a couple in the morning, a couple in the evening) into Paddington terminus platforms. Mapping such routes requires using +DIV/+SKIP points but doesn't contain any unique mileage.

Docklands Light Railway (DLR)

https://tmrail.teresco.org/hb/index.php?sys=gbndlr

Off-peak service pattern with list names and route names

• 12tph Bank - Lewisham | DLR | Docklands Light Railway (Bank - Lewisham)
• 6tph Bank - Woolwich Arsenal | DLRWoo | Docklands Light Railway (Bank - Woolwich Arsenal)
• 6tph Tower Gateway - Beckton | DLRRoy | Docklands Light Railway (Tower Gateway - Beckton)
• 6tph Canning Town - Beckton | DLRRoy | Docklands Light Railway (Tower Gateway - Beckton)[
• 12tph Stratford - Canary Wharf | DLRStr | Docklands Light Railway (Stratford - Canary Wharf)
• 6tph Stratford International - Woolwich Arsenal | DLRStI | Docklands Light Railway (Stratford International - Woolwich Arsenal)

Route naming
There's no, nor planned to be separate lines on the DLR. The line map has three colours by places they serve (Custom House, City Airport and Canary Wharf), but two of those branch so the 5 routes I have is correct.

I've gone with the following abbreviations:
<null> - Bank to Lewisham is the main route of the DLR
Roy - Royal Docks
StI - Stratford International
Str - Stratford
Woo - Woolwich Arsenal

The history of this was that originally I had it mapped by infrastructure rather than service and was going to offer both to showcase each concept. As such, they couldn't have the same abbreviations - IIRC the others were Bow (for Bow), Tow (for Tower Gateway), Bec (for Beckton), Ham (for West Ham), Lew (for Lewisham) and LCA (for City Airport). I'm very happy to change them, as they aren't very useful (Stratford and Woolwich Arsenal are served by two routes, for instance).
