Private Railways Shown on National Rail Maps

[STEVIEBOY1]

Good morning,

I have just picked up the latest edition of the London Rail & Tube services and London & South East Rail service map and as I have noticed before, this does show the Isle of Wight Steam Railway, the Spa Valley Railway & The Bluebell Railway, all of which have connections with NR services, however the Mid Hants/Watercress line is not shown and there would be plenty of room for it.

I wonder why that line does not appear (and some other too)?

I'm not sure, but didn't someone find a couple of years back that the lines that do appear have paid to be put on the map?

AFAIK-- No- incorrect
They are all lines that combined through tickets can be issued from National Rail stations.

So presumably cholsey and Wallingford railway should be shown as you can get through ticketing from GWR stations into Cholsey
