(Mods, let me know if this rightly belongs in the London Underground forum section or elsewhere, but since the map covers National Rail I thought I'd put it here)
I was surprised to discover the online version of the London's Rail & Tube Services map had been completely overhauled today, with much neater routeing of the lines, but with the Overground lines reverting to uniform orange... and then I noticed the Elizabeth line was missing... and that there were various references to service alterations in 2017.
Somehow, as of 2:13am today, TfL have managed to accidentally replace the current version with one from 2017.
Here is a link, and here is a version on the Internet Archive in case it gets quickly fixed. Here is an Internet Archive copy from May, for comparison.
I'm sure discussion on the design standards for tube maps have been done to death here, but I thought I'd make this post to at least note the bizarre mistake.
