CAPTION PRINTED BELOW PICTURE: 'Tube map - August 1997'

This edition of the pocket Underground map shows the DLR extension under construction between Island Gardens and Lewisham. The East London line is closed for refurbishment and is represented on the diagram as a broken orange line. Turnham Green is being served by Piccadilly line trains again and this is indicated by a triangle symbol. The Piccadilly line sections which run alongside the Metropolitan line and District line have been redesigned with a gap between the two lines and white line interconnectors to show interchange stations. The Waterloo & City line has reverted to its turquoise colour. The Jubilee line extension is shown under construction. On the reverse there is a station index, the Travel Information telephone number and an advert for Freepages. There are 10 Underground lines horizontally on the front cover with a stylised phone line at the bottom advertising the Travel Information telephone number.
