This is very good, but slightly out of date (still shows NXEA & WSMR)
Also there appears to be an inexplicable East Coast service between Machynlleth and Pwllheli.....
But you can buy full-size printouts of it.

The East Coast service looks like it is meant to be the steam service summer service from Mach to Port/Pwh as it has the correct route and calling pattern for that, so it is in the wrong colour or that colour is slightly different to the ones in the key.

I'll check on Monday, but I'm sure my local London Midland station has a large national rail map poster in the ticket office (staff side) produced by (I believe) TRACKmaps. It doesn't have track level detail, but it does look good and clear. I'll check who made it, but it's better than the National Rail one.

I had a full size trackmaps railway map but it was full of basic inaccuracies!

The 2007 map shows the Royal Albert Bridge over the River Tamar between Plymouth and Saltash. The road carrying suspension "Tamar Bridge" is also shown in the background.

The angle of view is almost identical to this photo:

One of those is on my wall (very useful for guess the station games). I also have a 1989 one somewhere, when the lines were orange and there was no Channel Tunnel, but a hovercraft route was marked. If I ever find it, it would be interesting to compare the two.

So it is, I'm looking at it now.

Some EC stations have Rail Route ones, however I know Quail did produce a decent-sized rail map of Britain a few years ago. It came free with Today's Railways UK a while ago, it contains all stations (with more detailed blow ups of complex areas) and preserved railways too.

There is a National Rail map available here off the Network Rail website,
