How about a Forum project to put together an 'ultimate' map [a bit like those sims guys]. Gav could do the coding but others could contribute with various other skills etc.
I'm thinking...
A map of all rail routes (incl. all historic routes, freight etc) in GB
Zoom in for greater detail; junction names, crossings, bridges and tunnels
Click on station for facilities
Click on From, To for routeing options
Click on From, To, Avoid for timetable and ticket info
TOC routes
Distance between two stations (or along selected route)
Approx location of all trains based on latest arrival/departure data
And now the business case...
Charge users a subscription fee for anything other than basic detail
Charge for advertising
Charge us 'anaraks' for recording personal trips - our very own on-line trip history
Thoughts...??
