Re: TFL looking into allowing sponsored Tube Names

Governments and organisations routinely explore all sorts of ideas and I see nothing wrong in exploring this one and it wouldn't necessarily mean changing the maps at all. I can't see the names being entirely changed since they have important geographical meaning and who's going to want to sponsor the less well known stations? However, if we can raise much needed revenue by adding, for example, sponsored names to the existing station signage I see nothing wrong with that? I'd have thought these companies are far more interested in people seeing their names bright and bold in the stations where they'll been really seen, not on maps which relatively few people spend more than a few minutes looking at.
