Hi all. Just wanted to see if anyone had a track diagram for the Heathrow Central area before the T5 extension was built? Something similar to what is currently found on Carto Metro would be great. Thanks in advance.
I don't have anything showing a combined HEX and LU layout, but attached are track diagrams taken from old Quail maps. The HEX layout is from a 2000 edition and the LU layout from a 1994 edition.

For the 'main line', the Central (T1, 2, 3) layout was the same as today, minus the up line connection/tunnel. It was built with T5 in mind and a short stub (now the down line) was used for reversals.
