It's with great pleasure that we announce the immediate launch of

Let's Train: London Underground "Mind the Gap" Edition

We recreated the London Underground network of 11 lines and 270 stations as a community giveaway train network on Steamgifts. Every station (giveaway) is on one of the lines, and links to the previous and next station, as well as to all other lines that stop in the same station (we have multiple GAs for stations that share multiple lines). That way we ended up with 380 giveaways from 66 contributors for the complete London Underground network.

Enter the London Underground here, and remember to MIND THE GAP!

After less than two days of Early Access we finally mounted the last few remaining signposts, and worked tirelessly to address all the bugs and issues reported by our 47 early adopters, including how to deal with blacklisted GAs and bringing the site back online (thanks cg!).

Oh, a quick note for those who tend to get lost easily: we recommend the official tube map as your guide through the London Underground network.

How long will you be open for the public?

Until Saturday 17. October.

Thank you

Thanks all who commented on the original thread, and specifically a very big thank you to the group of people who worked so hard these two weeks to make this happen: Nudiustertian, Momo1991, eeev, trentjaspar2, adam1224, Bloodcloak, josgba2002, Sinovera, SexyBudgie. Please consider them for a spot on your whitelist, even if only temporarily during this event!

And once you're through, consider sitting through the Daily (Mail) History Lesson just for fun :-)

I joined this project since it seemed to go so well with the fact that I recently got the London DLC for Cities in Motion (one of my top played games on Steam). Now after having familiarized myself with the lines and stations it's making me want to go create this metro in the game :P

You should! And after that go visit the real thing if you haven't, I bought a week pass when I was visiting and got to ride around for fun when I wanted to kill time between meeting friends and doing touristy stuff.

Now I can live the rest of my days at peace: I experienced the London underground without flying to England :)

I'm curious...would it be considered bad form to create an imagemap of the train links?

No, as long as you keep it for yourself :)

Sorry, half the fun we had in creating this was thinking about how everybody is going to be list, and that it's just like a giant maze, unless one goes about it methodically. This is why we wouldn't like seeing an imagemap passed around, thanks for understanding!

I understand, thanks for telling me. I've gone through 3 of the lines now, flashing back to the times I visited London :D.

Amazing work here. This surely must have taken a lot of time and effort... maybe even tears.
