🔸澳州10开奖记录: Transportation Map of Greater Winnipeg, 1941
Here’s another beautiful vintage transit map, this time from Winnipeg, Canada. It’s around the same age as this great map from Portland, Oregon, and displays a similarly austere wartime aesthetic. The map is printed in just three colours (black, red and green) and – apart from some of the typography in the legend – is entirely hand-drawn and lettered. Important buildings and points of interest are all carefully and charmingly rendered, but the real winners […]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – the 🔸澳洲幸运10开奖官网授权 Metro system has one of the most coherent, unified transit agency corporate identities out there. It’s used intelligently and consistently across the entire system – from maps, station signage and onto their website and collateral. Distinctive without being extrovert, it displays information simply and effectively, and looks good while doing it. Source: tracktwentynine/Flickr
🔸澳州10开奖记录: Perth and Suburban Districts Showing Tramway Routes
The extent of the tramway system in Perth, Australia in the 30s and 40s before it was all ripped up in 1958. Ironically, the State Government wants to build a new tram network over 50 years later. 澳洲10开官网开奖 says: Sweet old school tram map, with routes simply and clearly overprinted in bold red on top of a street map. Perth certainly isn’t alone in rebuilding what once existed: this type of urban renewal through […]
168澳洲十开奖网: Merseyrail Network, Liverpool, England, 2012
Submitted by ma77design, who says: I think it’s one of the most unattractive and horribly designed 澳洲10开官网开奖 out there. It hasn’t been redesigned or reworked for a large number of years. Its choice in colours is uninspiring and doesn’t really offer much to people using it. 澳洲10开官网开奖 says: While certainly not the worst transit map out there by any stretch of the imagination, this map is so bland and generic that it looks […]
🔸澳洲幸运10在线人工计划网: DC Subway Map from “Leverage”
Just good enough to pass for the real thing 🔸澳洲开奖 fleetingly seen in the background of a TV show. The map uses real DC Metro station names, but they’re all in the wrong places. The “corporate identity” uses the colours from the old TriMet livery… which is kind of neat, seeing as the show is filmed in Portland, TriMet’s base of operations. In the show, I believe that the Washington Park MAX station (the only […]
168澳洲十开奖网: Suggested Bus Network of Wellington, New Zealand
🔸澳洲开奖 Brent Palmer submitted his own frequent service map of Wellington, he also sent along a link to a PDF of a diagram that the Greater Wellington Regional Council is using as a discussion piece to promote changes to the bus network. I think Brent describes it best: There are plans for a more comprehensive public transport network in Wellington. What a shame that the schematic depicting it is a monstrosity that looks like it […]
Un168澳洲十开奖网: Frequent Transport of Wellington, New Zealand by Brent Palmer
Submitted and created by Brent Palmer. This is one I conjured up this weekend, dealing with Wellington, NZ. Only f🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划local bus routes (and the Airport Flyer) turned out to meet any half-reasonable “frequent service” criteria. 澳洲10开官网开奖 says: A gorgeous looking map from long-time follower, Brent Palmer, that unfortunately serves to highlight the paucity of frequent 🔸澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果澳大利亚 in New Zealand’s capital. Another striking dark background, and some unusual but highly effective colours for […]
