It's a bit distracting seeing underground train lines overlaid on the

map of London (especially when taking screenshots to use as the base for
other maps) -- anyone think they could be removed, and have a separate
layer for train/metro connections? (like steve's map of london
underground)
Why remove them ? Just adjust the stylesheet, so they aren't rendered as
prominently, I.E. lighter gray than today for the underground segments
of the line. Or in the case of specialtymaps, not rendered at all for
the underground segments of the line.
Personally I find it beneficiary to have them on the default [EMAIL
PROTECTED] map
layer. They ensure that the map is more complete and usable for everyday
navigation IMHO. At least here in Copenhagen.
When looking at the underground in london, I'm seeing things like:
* St Pancras underground station not connected to any railway lines
* Section of the Circle line missing
etc.
...that are very obvious from SteveC2's specialist tube map[1], and on tools
like Subway[2], but don't seem to have been noticed during all the time that
they were visible on [EMAIL PROTECTED]
