(Sorry if this is slightly off-topic for this forum but wanted to speak to some SSC's in native English)

Beijing is rapidly expanding its subway ready for the Olympics - there are scores of unnofficial maps of this online but I'm trying desperately to find an OFFICIAL map of the Beijing Subway as it will exist at the time of the Olympics.

Already tried:
Beijing Subway Corp
Agency that deals with selling ad-space on the system
Chinese Embassies
Olympic Games office
Other formums on here
and other places too!
(One official sent me a crappy low res pinched off the Wikipedia site with the word Wikipedia unprofessionally sprayed out! Lord knows how they are gonna put the 'greatest show on earth' on four months time! Let alone run a subway train to it!):bash:

Anyone on here got a decent hi res photo of the diagrams stuck up inside the subway cars there or on the platforms? Or even picked up an official printed map of the system when you where there?

If you have something but cant upload it to flickr etc, PM me and I'll send you my direct email.

Many thanks SSC'ers.

Try the international transport forum's subway/urban transit section. There's even a thread about the Beijing subway there:

Cheers Langur - I already stuck a post there too - seems these maps are rare as hens teeth!
