Just Postcards RR #2408 Lucky Dip

From chenfeng301/Fiona

Sent: 5 November 2015

Spot some interesting things, including:

 

- Central Line in the west only as far as Greenford.

- Ditto in the east only as far as Woodford and Newbury Park - the rest of the old Great Eastern Railway branch lines were yet to be opened as part of the Underground.

- The Metropolitan and District Lines shown as one.

- The Met going beyond Amersham to Aylesbury.

- The District Line going to Hounslow West (actually it got there before the Piccadilly).

- The South Acton branch from Acton Town.

- The proposed Northern Line extensions that never got built.

- Walham Green on the District Line branch to Wimbledon - now Fulham Broadway.

- The 'Outer Circle' via Kensinton Olympia - ‘temporarily closed’ by the look of it. And still closed over 70 years later.

- And more...

While exploring my archive I've stumbled on this map of Amman, it was published by "International Media Services", as you see their credentials at the map footer.

 

It's really a strange thing to find! I don't recall how it came into my archive.. it's like seeing a visualised memory directly in my hands. Anway, the map is really interesting, it shows you the brands, shops, venues and landmarks of Amman two decades ago, I'm sure many of us still remembering few parts of this map, the map of a vivid city who changed a lot.

 

The map, obviously, was drawn by hand, the artist who done that used some weird orientations, so you find Rainbow street is west of Al-Husseini Mosque and they share the same horizontal level, then you keep going west until you reach Abdoun, a few steps after Abdoun you find yourself in the Queen Alia Airport! Funny..

 

However, the artist made a good effort to draw the building's facade, I was impressed to see some iconic buildings of Amman drawn in a nice way, it seems like someone did a big research for photos and logos, and delivered them to the artist's hands.

 

Many brands in this map have been extinct, and many are still surviving, but it still Amman that we love!

  

This map has links to places where we took photos.

 

The map is best viewed in either large or original format.

The railway was an East West link of 183 miles and 20 chains between Yarmouth, Norwich and Peterborough with its works at the four way crossing at Melton Constable. 2 sections survive in use: the Cromer to Sheringham section of the national network and Sheringham to Holt (almost) as a preserved steam operated line.
