Any thoughts on the MBTA map from The Simpsons’ Boston lambast bash last night? Looks like the new design.

Transit Maps says:

It sure does, although it has a cunningly crafted square “T” logo to prevent confusion with the real thing. The background water layer has also been deleted, probably to make the route lines stand out a little more obviously. Curiously, it’s labelled as a “bus routes map”, but overall, this is a lovely little piece of detail for a scene that probably only appeared for a very short time within the episode.
