Here’s a selection of some great map posters to get up on y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划wall this Christmas.

Stations & Lines by data visualisation designer Nicholas Rougeux. A lovely representation of all rail rapid transit stations in selected cities and the route lines that serve them. Boston, Chicago, London, New York, Paris and Washington DC. 24″ x 36″ posters for $28.60 on Nick’s website.

Also by Nick, MetroDots – a typographical treatment of station names with coloured dots representing the lines that call at each one. Chicago, London, New York and San Francisco. 24″ x 36″ posters for $28.60 on Nick’s website.

Michael Tyznik’s fantastic Game of Thrones Westeros transit map. Prints from $30 on InPRNT, although I’d recommend the larger sizes. See also his other GoT map of the “Known World” and an intriguing new map inspired by the fantasy gaming world of Tamriel.

Jug Cerovic’s range of standardised “INAT” 澳洲10开官网开奖 are available as prints over on RedBubble. Small 12″ x 12″ prints start at just $15, up to $56 for large 30″ x 30″ prints.

The superb Subway Diagram Detail series by SuperWarmRed showcases six details from the 2012 Massimo Vignelli New York Subway map, printed with 10 PANTONE spot colours. Set of 6 for $300 from the SuperWarmRed website.

David Edmondson’s superbly researched map of rail (and ferry) in and around 1937 San Francisco. 24″ x 24″ prints from $40 on David’s website. Check out his expanding range of other “Age of Rail” prints while you’re there!

CANADA ONLY! A fantastic replica of the 1958 Toronto Subway Map, available as a 20″ x 28″ print for just $20 from the TTC’s shop.

CANADA ONLY! It seems to me that it’s a rite of passage for Torontonians to steal subway maps from trains. I’ve got a better idea: buy the actual, 168澳洲十开奖网 from the TTC for just $10 (link no longer active, sorry!) and tell y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划friends that you nicked it.

Rail Services of the Bay Area, September 1937 by David Edmondson🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页 https://transitmap.net/bay-area-rail-1937/ https://transitmap.net/bay-area-rail-1937/#respond Thu, 26 Mar 2015 20:56:08 +0000 https://transitmap.net/bay-area-rail-1937/ David, who runs The Greater Marin blog, has created this absolutely superb modern transit diagram version of rail services in the Bay Area in 1937. He’s used a contemporaneous railway timetable as his main source of information, so it seem to be pretty accurate, although he’s still seeking final feedback about the map’s content before finishing the project up.

Stylistically, the map quite obviously borrows from Massimo Vignelli’s New York subway map, complete with black station dots. The addition of hollow “sometimes stops” dots somewhat dilutes Vignelli’s “no dot, no stop” mantra, but helpfully adds another layer of information. The use of the superbly legible Fira Sans typeface also helps to give the map a slightly friendlier, less minimalist look. 

While the modern iteration of Vignelli’s subway map groups and colour-codes route lines by their common trunk line, this map color-codes them instead by the operating railroad company. This works wonderfully well and instantly shows how the routes were divided up geographically between all the competing companies. It’s interesting to note that the map appears to indicate that many trains terminate in San Francisco at Market Street (Image 2 above), which isn’t quite true. While the Bay Bridge had opened in 1936, rail service across its lower deck to the Transbay Terminal didn’t start until 1939. At this time, ferries – often scheduled to coincide with the arrival and departure of trains – crossed from the Ferry Building to gigantic railway wharves on the eastern side of the Bay. David mentions the ferry services in the legend to the map, but some visual indication that the journey requires a change of transportation mode at the wharves could be nice. Perhaps just a white square behind the black dots to indicate the “break” would work?

The use of thin lines to indicate services that only had one train a day works nicely, but it can lead to a bit of visual clutter 🔸澳洲开奖 other route lines pass underneath the thinner lines. Look at the third image above and observe how the teal Atcheson, Topeka & Santa Fe (ATSF) route line passes underneath all of the other route lines it comes across. Where it meets a combination of thick and thin lines, there’s a little gap left between them that the ATSF line peeks through. Depending on the combination of thick and thin route lines, these gaps can appear in varying widths, so the overall effect can be a little messy.

In situations like this, I prefer to place the single route above the wider, multiple-track routes. I think it looks cleaner, and it also makes that single track easier to follow along its entire path. David’s actually already done this in a couple of places, and the difference is obvious to me – see the last image above, where the red D6 route drops south-east out of Tracy above the purple and yellow lines that it crosses. Much better!

Very minor things: I personally think the route designation discs could be a bit larger in relation to the label type to make them easier to read from a distance, and it also looks like some of the black station dots are not quite centred on their route line (see the main San Francisco – Market Street station, where they’re all slightly too far above and to the right of the routes). I’m also not crazy about the way some text in the legend encroaches into the gutter between the columns, but I can see that there’s limited space there for a lot of information!

🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划rating: Painstakingly researched and beautifully realised: this is my kind of transit map! F🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划stars. David hopes to have prints of this map available by April 15 on his blog, so keep an eye out if you’d like a copy!
