Changing at Shanghai Railway Station

Thanks to the many people who pointed out that the metro map route planner didn't work too well for journeys via Shanghai Railway Station or Hongkou Stadium. For example, it often makes sense to change between lines 1 and 3 at Shanghai Railway Station, even though this involves buying a second ticket.

The good news is this is now reflected in the journey planner: it will show the price of both parts of the journey where appropriate:

Route with interchange

In addition, there are now more accurate journey times and first train/last train information for the new Line 6.
