More Magnificent Maps (Well, One More)<\/span><\/p>\n Heathrow Area Bus Diagram<\/p>\n … but there is no page 2<\/span>! It offers a link …<\/p><\/div>\n … which simply takes us back to where we began in yesterday’s blog.<\/p><\/div>\n Even to fbb, who liked to think he can understand bus maps, it degerates into a hyper muddle, especially between Terminals 2\/3 and 5.<\/p>\n What’s more (what’s less?) it is out of date.<\/p>\n Note 4, X26 and X140 and the absence of 730\/731.<\/p><\/div>\n … but extends further and includes all National Express coach routes.<\/p>\n Sadly it doesn’t really sort out the 730\/731 drivel.<\/p>\n Essentially this map includes everything that we saw yesterday plus a lot more. Do we really need both. fbb guesses that none of these maps is available at Heathrow in hard copy (who would ever want such a dated set of data? – Actually we almost everybody!) we can always enlarge the on-line PDF.<\/p><\/div>\n It even shows First’s renumbered A4 correctly.<\/p>\n And look, there is an fbb mystery route, the A60 which appears to only run FROM<\/span> Sunnymeads.<\/p><\/div>\n So, free travel now only applies to trains; and that dotted line?<\/p>\n H30 bus? The mystery again.<\/p>\n Aha? H30 runs every 20 minutes early in the morning. And as part of this map we get more detail about the H30.<\/p>\n And here is the timetable.<\/p>\n An here is the N30 …<\/p>\n …\u00a0 the above two operated by Diamond South East and the A60 by Carlone..<\/p>\n fbb thinks these are virtual\u00a0trains<\/span>. They fill gaps in the early morning train service pattern to help shift workers get to their labours.<\/p><\/div>\n
