although the dimensions are all squooshed... it gives a better view of how the various lines interconnect. and yeah it's been out for a couple weeks... at least the pdf. the sgv got chopped in half! the previous map went all the way to the san bernardino county line. this one stops around peck road. so don't forget to pick up one of those handy foothill transit booklets if you use or will use bus service in the sgv.

I checked, and I apparently saved the map to my computer on August 12! It was a great day. With just the one background color, it is easier to see all the different routes, it does seem more organized.

Are you sure it's just been released? I've had this map for a week...

Wao! It's SimCity meets 70s-era RandMcNally... The Militant does believe it was designed to better feature the Rapid lines and how they integrate with the rail network. Would love to see it circa 2010 with the Gold Line extension to the (Real) Eastside and the Exposition line.

When I see the map with real time moving dots of the buses and trains in operation with dynamic time estimates, then I'll be excited.
