London Connections Maps

Despite what I was told, the little enquiry office by the stairs to platform 1 and 1a at Barking Station does have these - in the middle drawer of the office desk. I have been told there that they haven't go any and to go to Fenchurch Street - yet today they had dozens. It's a 4/08 version, which may not be the latest (the on line version is dated 26 September) but it's better than nothing.

The National Rail website says (http://nationalrail.co.uk/tocs_maps/maps/network_rail_maps.html) "Copies of this map are normally available from staffed National Rail stations in London and the South East." Well not in my experience in the case of Barking.

At Limehouse I was told they had more than they could deal with. Why not send them to Barking if they haven't got any - or even to LUL stations!

If you can get hold of these maps, do, and give them out to fellow travellers, friends and family. Many people don't know about them. Even slightly out-of-date / used versions get snapped up in my experience.
