Your transit maps

I was wondering if anybody here has ever made a transit map in photoshop. I've done a few now, getting better each time.

This is my latest effort:

I was inspired by a transit map I saw which was unusually based on a dark background. I made the map above for a multiplayer server which has a bus system I designed.

Anybody else care to share their transit maps?

looks great!
can u try that with the spandau 89 map?

Is that for GTA San Andreas?

Are we talking real local transit maps, transit maps for in-game maps we've made, or just random transit maps for a fictional city?

I used to play (GTA) SA-MP, and was a member of a larger server called LSRP where I ran a large transit faction (100 drivers). I left there and joined a server based in San Fierro, and ran the transit faction there, too. The map was made for that transit faction (SF Metro).

As far as the purpose of the thread is concerned, its just to show off how well you can make any transit map - whether its based on a fictional omsi route or an adaptation of real-world maps

Looks great! you still on that samp server?? I own a samp server need someone to own the transport company if anyone is interested.. Set in Bone County/Fort Carson

Here's the network map page of the timetable booklet I recently designed for the company I work for (real life) which is due to be printed in a few weeks. It's by no means a masterpiece, it's just a quick and simple network map going into a booklet with the page being a third of A4 size long. I would have spent more time on it if it was worth it to make it more refined, but it's really not for its purpose.

I must say JDX, nice job on yours, very well made and stylish - you clearly know what you're doing

You don't need to create a masterpiece to create a nice looking transit map - which yours is. It's clean, tidy, and most importatly has anti aliasing.
Btw, is your company a subsidiary of Stagecoach? The logo has a very Southwest Trains look to it.

Also - do you have a forum or something for your server? I'm certainly interested. Will have to fix up GTA SA first, though (I broke it lol).

Hey, if you were talking to me yes we do have a forum. (we dont have too many players and the server isn't online at the moment due to some technical issues but the forum is up and running.)

This is a 90's styled map for my WIP route:

Famous? hahaha, no, not at all (although one of the directors/bosses is quite famous in the UK bus industry). Ever heard of "2 Travel" group, and their high profile court case against Cardiff Bus? Yup, same director that ran that group lol.

And no, it's a small family independent with about 17 service buses and 6 coaches. However, rather confusingly, First Cymru used to be called the same name and the chances are it's that original company that you might have heard of; this is a completely separate company that just uses the same trading name. Try searching Flickr for some photographs, however you need to look at the buses which are white with a green band across the bottom (and some on top by the roof) and not the all-over green buses with multi-coloured stripes (this is the old company with the same name which is now First). Put "Neath" on the end of your search and it should narrow it down a lot more.

ECW, either this company is in Wales, or you've made a lot of typos!
