These are great!

I'd love to see them for London, but of course to reveal the arcane sigil which Bank/Monument stations weave beneath the unquiet earth of the city would loose a torrent of otherwordly terror the likes of which the world has never seen.
So... probably best not.

Hi - I was intrigued by this question and found some maps for London here: https://www.ianvisits.co.uk/blog/2015/07/12/3d-maps-of-every-underground-station-ab/

Kind of tempted to do more research around the world and make another post.

btw they have the Bank-Monument complex - but best not to look at it.

That's awesome, thanks carter!

What I really like in the post is that they include above ground and underground.
The London ones don't have that, which is a shame because it ties it into our normal over ground world in a way that the bare diagrams don't.
