London Loop

This is Transport for London's London Loop, the original of which you may find here. This version follows exactly the same route as the original. However, there are two differences.

• The text is the same as in the original, except in a number of instances where it is plainly wrong. Some of these would appear to be simple errors, or at best inaccuracies. In other cases it would appear that the text is out of date: the facts on the ground have changed since the text was written. In both of these cases I have substituted my own text as appropriate.
• The choice of starting and ending points of the sections (the nodes) seems a little odd. Some of the nodes are nowhere near a station, so they have to be accessed by bus. Furthermore, the lengths of the sections vary unduly; the standard deviation is 2.3 miles. By a judicious choice of stations on or near to the route as the nodes, but keeping the total number of sections the same, the standard deviation may be reduced to 1.7 miles.
