LEGO Tube Maps

[dfurn]

I'd read there were some LEGO Tube Maps which were up in various Underground stations, including one of the network in 2020!

Apparently there are some leaflets accompanying these maps; anyone have any of these?

Here's the TfL page about the maps:

As far as I know they're still up.

I've a pic somewhere of the one at Green Park - I think this is the 1970 one - will look it up.

Thanks would be interested. I was more thinking of the leaflets referred to. I assume they have pictures of the maps?

Not seen the leaflets but I did get a picture of the Lego map at Kings Cross St Pancras:

"The maps, can be seen at Kings Cross St. Pancras (for the 2020 map), South Kensington (1927 map), Piccadilly Circus (1933 - Harry Beck's original map), Green Park (1968 map) and Stratford (2013 map) Tube stations this summer, before moving onto permanent homes at London Transport Museum."

As oxymoronic as it sounds, the 2020 map is out of date. It shows the Northern line going via Vauxhall, whereas that was rejected in favour of the route via Nine Elms.

(A more up-to-date 2020 map is shown on the Crossrail website here, but even then that's still missing the recently-announced transfer of the Lea Valley lines to LO.)
