Editing Tube map (section)

===Official versions===
The Tube map exists to help passengers navigate the London rapid transit network, and whether it should play a wider role in helping people navigate London itself has been questioned. The question has been raised as to whether mainline railways should be shown on the map, particularly those in [[Inner London]]. The Underground has largely resisted adding additional services to the standard Tube map and instead produces separate maps with different information, including:
* [http://content.tfl.gov.uk/standard-tube-map.pdf Standard Tube map]: Shows all Underground, London Overground, DLR, [[Elizabeth line]], Tramlink and Thameslink routes and stations, and fare zones.
* [http://content.tfl.gov.uk/bw-large-print-map.pdf Large print Tube map] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161130173136/http://content.tfl.gov.uk/bw-large-print-map.pdf |date=30 November 2016 }}: As above but with larger print.
* [http://content.tfl.gov.uk/walking-tube-map.pdf Walking distance map]: Shows walking times between stations in the central London area.
* [http://content.tfl.gov.uk/toilets-map.pdf Toilet facilities map]: Shows toilet facilities at stations.
* [http://content.tfl.gov.uk/bicycles-on-public-transport.pdf Bikes on trains map] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161213035734/http://content.tfl.gov.uk/bicycles-on-public-transport.pdf |date=13 December 2016 }}: Shows which routes allow bicycles to be taken on trains during peak times.
* [http://content.tfl.gov.uk/standard-night-tube-map.pdf Night Tube map]: Shows Night Tube services.
* [https://content.tfl.gov.uk/step-free-tube-guide-map.pdf Step-free Tube Guide]: Shows which stations have lifts, escalators or ramps to platforms.
* [http://content.tfl.gov.uk/tube-map-with-tunnels.pdf Tube Map Showing Tunnels]: Shows sections of lines that are in tunnel. Designed to help users with claustrophobia or other anxiety conditions.
* London Connections map: Produced by the [[Association of Train Operating Companies]] (ATOC), this provided the same information as TfL's Travelcard Zones map but extended further beyond [[List of stations in London fare zones 7–9, G and W|fare zones 7–9]]. National Rail lines were emphasised by thicker lines and coloured according to their [[train operating company]] (TOC). This map was replaced by the Oyster Rail Services map.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/passenger_services/maps/ |title=National Rail Enquiries – Maps |publisher=Nationalrail.co.uk |access-date=9 January 2013 |archive-date=6 January 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130106054927/http://nationalrail.co.uk/passenger_services/maps/ |url-status=live }}</ref>

Maps are produced in different sizes, the most common being Quad Royal (40 × 50&nbsp;inches<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.ltmcollection.org/posters/results/results.html?IXsearchformat=Quad%20royal |title=Search Results: Quad royal – Poster and poster artwork collection, London Transport Museum |work=ltmcollection.org |access-date=10 October 2009 |archive-date=11 September 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120911084826/http://www.ltmcollection.org/posters/results/results.html?IXsearchformat=Quad%20royal |url-status=dead }}</ref>) poster size and Journey Planner pocket size. The maps showing all the National Rail routes provide useful additional information at the expense of considerably increased complexity, as they contain almost 700 stations.
