Submitted by Bernie, whose Melbourne and Singapore maps have been featured previously on Transit Maps. Of this map, Bernie says: Attached is a map of the Stockholm railway network (including the metro system, trams, local railways and commuter railways operated by SL, and Arlanda Express). I got a bit of inspiration after a recent visit. I loved the original Stockholm subway map – it is an exercise of minimalist beauty. Just three colours, and dashed […]

Submitted by Michael, who says: I am a long-time fan of your blog and now first time contributor. I have made a few attempts at making transit maps, but this is the first I’ve finished. I noticed that though Pittsburgh has a number of maps for Light Rail and the Busways, there is no good map or diagram which includes all of the rapid transit options on the same map—nor one which shows the connections […]

Having just returned from a family trip to my hometown of Sydney, here’s a very relevant map designed by Jimmy Liu.

Nice work here from long-time Transit Maps correspondent Matt Johnson as he visualises all existing and under construction light rail and streetcar systems in the USA in one graphic. In a way, this graphic is an update of this fantastic (but now out of date) one by Bill Rankin that shows the relative scales of all North American rail-based urban rapid transit (PDF link). The sprawling nature of some of the light rail systems is readily apparent, reflecting the […]

Now that Thanksgiving is done and dusted, let’s move on to Christmas! Submitted by Metrolley, here’s a lovely little map produced by anamea.de that shows the location of the myriad Christmas markets around Berlin in relation to the U- and S-Bahn networks. A nice amalgam of the official map’s style and form with just enough Christmas cheer added – the colour-coded market names (tied to the line they’re on) are a lovely little touch. Nicely […]

Submitted by Arne himself (and others). Arne says: I started my own diagram of all the regular rail connections in Belgium that will be active after the schedule change coming in half December. I got the feeling there was so much noise around this schedule change (train lines being canceled or rerouted), but at no point the rail company had any nice visual representation of what the network would look like in the future. So […]
