Thanks, I was curious. I was tempted to stroll to the station at lunch
to find my local one, but it is raining now :(

The rather broken rendering of the pedestrian area in the top left of
the "Local area map" is interesting; it sells OSM short.

Also, it looks like they're using another source for the bus stop data
(stop A is on the other side of the footpath). I'm assuming each map
is edited by someone with local knowledge? ;) So it is a shame that
improvements are contributed back to OSM.

Cheers,
Craig
