The rules are simple:
1. Your Move Must be a Fictional station
2. You Must give a location on the Tube map for your fictional station
3. You must give a context for the station, e.g. Walford East, as featured in EastEnders
4. The winning move shall be as titled.
5. Have Fun!

[FGZ] lots of ways, here's a couple. Post it as a large jpg or a pdf on a separate URL location
[SW] That has been posted as the largest jpg I could get outta Photoshop, and I don't know how to do a pdf.
I did it!
May I introduce...
The New, Improved Map! See if you can spot some of the added extras, I didn't just change the names, you know!
Stamford Culvert
Much more realistic than Stamford 'Brook'.
The new map is much more readable. Thanks.

Adding a more continental flavour to an otherwise dull Baker Street
Go

Replaces Chancery Lane.
St Peter's
Replaces St Paul's after legal action to recover stolen goods.
