First Capital Connect

First Capital Connect is a big fan of RailRoute. In 2009 they had copies of the full map placed on each of their 52 managed stations.

In 2011 FCC approached RailRoute with a very specific problem. The information panels on their stations which showed passengers the stations on the line were badly dated and often covered in Graffiti.RailRoute was tasked with providing an up to date poster which showed the FCC route plotted against the rest of the local network on a poster which would be easily cleaned in the event of a graffiti attack.

RailRoute designed a series of maps, specifically designed for each station showing the train’s journey along the FCC route. The rest of the local rail network was shown as a background and the map was printed on anti-graffiti board in double royal size.

The difference between the old and new is illustrated below (RailRoute on the left, the old graffiti spoiled poster on the right):
