The first diagrammatic map of London's rapid transit network was designed by Harry Beck in 1931. [1] [2] He was a London Underground employee who realised that because the railway ran mostly underground, the physical locations of the stations were largely irrelevant to the traveller wanting to know how to get from one station to another; only the topology of the route mattered.
In 1885, the colour changed to a dark red known as Midcared, and this was to remain the standard colour and taken up as the colour for the Metropolitan line by London Transport in 1933. [6] When in 1925 the Met classified its locomotives by letters of the alphabet, these were assigned A Class and B Class. [7]
The 1933 London Underground Beck map shows a Metropolitan line north of High Street Kensington and Mark Lane stations and a District line south of these points. [21] On the 1947 map, the Metropolitan and District lines were shown together in the same colour [22] and two years later in 1949 the Circle line was shown separately on the map. [23]
