Haven't had time to finish it (paid work gets in the way...) or update it for recent reopenings, but it gives you some idea of the network we used to have.
- akshayn 11y agoGreat map! Not sure if you are aware of http://www.openrailwaymap.org http://www.openrailwaymap.org - although your project includes interesting snippets ("proposed for reopening", etc)
