Hello all,
I've started a little project I've been thinking about for years, which is to create maps showing all the direct services operating from a given station.
So far, I've made two: Northampton and Amersham. I've made a dedicated page on my website for them here: http://mkttransport.co.uk/maps/direct-services-maps/
I'd welcome feedback on this idea and these two maps in particular.
These do take a lot of time and effort to make, but I'm very much open to requests for stations you'd like me to do. Nothing too crazy please - I'm going to try Milton Keynes soon but that's about as big and complex as I want to go for now! But please do suggest stations and I'll be glad to give realistic ones a go. I'm also going to try a few Irish stations as well. I'll post new maps I do in this thread when I've done them.
If people want to try making some of their own in a similar style that's cool too.
I hope people find these interesting - it's the sense of how well connected a given place is that interests me, and Northampton was a great stating point given how atrociously poor its connections are for a place of its size.
So please, feedback and suggestions welcome!
