In an ideal world, we would be able to use these with the Routemap template. For headers, which are not subject to the same issues as Routemap pictograms, we encourage the use of  3C1053 . For the pictograms themselves, in lieu of an exact match with BSicon sets, we propose using the following colours:

• Instead of  FF8300   FF6600  Orange for Rail (inside TfWM boundary)
• Instead of  0075C9   0078BE  Blue for Metro
• Instead of  EA0029   EF161E  Red for Bus
• Instead of  638C1C   008000  F for Cycle
• Instead of  DF1683   B5198D  Fuchsia for Roads
• Instead of  84329B   800080  Violet for Rail (outside TfWM boundary)
• Instead of  169586   339999  Teal for waterways
• Instead of  0097CE   069DD3  Deepsky for VLR
• Instead of  54565B   999999  Grey for any other uses
