    Another Railway Map

    Thanks. I have added the abandoned stations, but not the Brent Cross one. I have also corrected more mistakes found and tidied up a few areas. I have also made a version of the map that does away with the regions of British Railways, so all lines are in black for open and grey for closed. Hope...

    Currently unable to log in to DB website from UK

    I agree. I just managed to register and then sign out and sign back in again without any error when using a hotspot wifi via my mobile phone. Like you I am on Virgin Media so it would seem Bahn has a problem with Virgin Media ISP (and maybe other ISPs). Annoyingly though, I already have an...

    Currently unable to log in to DB website from UK

    Same here, I get the error on the old or new site. I even tried creating a new account and after identifying the zebra in the captcha, got the same error. I wonder if it's the capture causing the problem?

    Another Railway Map

    Sorry, I have added it now and I will update the files later today. The dates are there but unfortunately viewing the PDF in some browsers doesn't allow a close enough zoom in to see them. In a few PDF viewer apps it does allow a closer zoom. I cannot make the dates, names and lines any larger...

    Another Railway Map

    Thank you, I will correct those mistakes when back in front of a computer. 1906 Bradshaw on Timetable World shows a 7.10 am Marylebone to Leicester calling at Northwood 7.33 so I think it should appear. edit: Chorleywood, Harrow & Wealdstone and Woodstock Road now corrected. Harefield halt...

    Another Railway Map

    I attach a new updated version. Many new spelling errors have been found and fixed, including an appalling error down in the West Country, but in my defence, I honestly thought that was how the town was spelt! Some missing lines have been added, and some have changed from Freight to Passenger...

    Another Railway Map

    Thank you. Glad it is of use, and that was a primary reason for making it - so that I could have a file with enough detail that I could carry around on my mobile phone and use whilst travelling by train. It's not perfect and it won't tick every box, but it's good enough for my purposes.

    Another Railway Map

    Another updated version with most of the above mentioned corrections applied, plus a couple of missing stations. I can't show New Croydon as East Croydon effectively replaces it. I am not planning on showing all the different names that a station might have gone through. Cruden Bay, Burton &...

    Another Railway Map

    Thank you. Upper Sydenham added to next version. The Mumbles line was known as a railway and also a tramway, so it went in. Liverpool Overhead railway justified going in too. I am trying to avoid tramways as such, especially urban tramways. But the Grimsby & Immingham railway was owned by the...

    Another Railway Map

    I enclose an updated version of my map where I hope I have corrected those spelling mistakes in some station names. A few I even knew the correct spelling of, but still managed to type it wrongly. So thank you to Mcr Warrior, Gloster, Railsigns for the corrections. I've added a few lines: the...

    Another Railway Map

    Thanks for the corrections. I have corrected the errors that's been helpfully pointed out by you and others and I have an updated version, but I have a question on etiquette - is it best to delete the attachment in my original post and add the updated version into the original post, or make a...

    Another Railway Map

    It's a good point - basically if the name would fit next to its station then it was placed there, but if the name wouldn't fit in the space, ie it went over the top of the actual lines, then it had to go off somewhere else and be referenced by a number. I did mull on whether to have GLASGOW in a...

    I could only get round to replying this afternoon, and I've been typing a reply on and off for the past 2-3 hours! Hope I've answered now.

    Another Railway Map

    Thanks for the feedback so far. I knew I would have some spelling errors in the names, no matter how many times I went over this map, there were bound some I'd missed. I will of course correct them. Some are genuine fat finger mistakes or me reading one word and fingers adding or leaving out a...

    Another Railway Map

    I hope you don't mind me posting this here, but over the past few years I've been working on a railway map covering the passenger railways of Great Britain and it's now at the stage where I am happy with it and want to make it available to others. It's very much a work in progress, and I will...
