Jake Berman is one of those transit map design enthusiasts who are simply too prolific to note everything they do – suffice it to say that you should head over to his website and check out all the cool transit map things he makes.
However, I do have to share this map – recreating a failed attempt at a south-east Michigan rail-based rapid transit system – if only because I think that Jake has absolutely nailed the mid-1970s design aesthetic. Thick route lines with hard angles and unnecessary wobbles, all-caps station labels, all lower-case agency acronym… it’s got the lot! Nice work, Jake!
