The time has come (the walrus said)...

I think it's time for a Euro-version of Mornington Crescent based on the excellent transport system of Brussels.

To start off, I think we should play the EU (non-regulated) rules and include the tram and metro systems. Play is almost the same as the UK version and most of the variants can be used more-or-less unaltered. Both Flemish and French names are acceptable and the "Mornington Crescent" of Brussels, in case you don't already know, is St Antoonkerk/Eglise St Antoine.

Good maps are available of course on the web and for starters I would suggest:

http://homepage.univie.ac.at/horst.prillinger/metro/m/brussel.html for trams and

http://cordis.europa.eu/cost/src/metromap.htm or
http://www.eurorailways.com/kb/brochures/bru_metro.pdf for the Metro

For an opening play may I propose...
