I know this sounds stupid but ive been searching all over Multimap and can't find what you're talking about. where is it?

Out of all of the stations managed by Network Rail in central London, only a few of them really need to be managed by network rail, as most of them are only served by a single TOC and could equally be operated by that TOC. Euston - soon, will only be served by VT. • Fenchurch Street - only...

Something I found whilst surfing the net; http://www.cryptart.com/tube/codemap.pdf It looks like total drivel but I thought I'd pass it here first - what are these BRS codes?
