Mile End line diagrams

[21146]

Some readers may be aware of the two errors on line diagrams at Mile End which existed for many years.

Basically Upminster Bridge was spelled with an extra "i" on the EB,

whilst even more incredibly on the WB, they'd managed to insert an additional "Putney Green" station on the Wimbledon branch.

Well, the ongoing refurbishment put paid to both of these in March 2010. However, I'm pleased to see the tradition continues on the new signs, with Hanger Lane spelled wrongly on about half of them!

I can forgive them for making that spelling error in Hanger Lane as it's one I frequently make. That doesn't excuse the proof-reader (or lack of proof reading) though!
