I am fascinated by maps showing all sorts of public transportation networks. On this page you may find some things I’ve created.
... or rather, a subway map with very large fonts? Anyway, this was my attempt at a Prague subway network map that could be displayed on the high-resolution screen of a cell phone. The width of the map is only 240px. This layout is suitable for people who know most of the stations but need a quick reference of their actual sequence. See the map as displayed on my Nokia E50.
Three new stations on North end of the C line (shown dashed) are open since May 2008. The dots between the stations indicate the actual distance between two adjacent stations. One dot represents 500 m.
This design has been used in tourist guide Week-end Pas Cher Prague 2010 by Philippe Bénet and Renata Holzbachová, published by Les Beaux Jours, Paris.

A collection of photographs of labels “You Are Here” on Prague subway maps located at individual station platforms. I am only taking pictures on such stations that I had some real reason to visit: i.e. it either must be my destination or a point of transfer. The chart below shows which stations I already have covered.
(Yes, I admit, there’s no particular point doing this
.)
