Hi, Who is working on walking maps around the Esk Valley? I could help as long it is the one I know in North Yorkshire.

I think this must be the latter, as I'm sure I used it for free and not as part of a trial. I had similar gripes to your own, with a few more: my biggest gripe was at how useless it was compared with how useful it could be. With a little investment from FGW to get the stations along the route mapped fully in OSM and a few tweaks to the renderer they could point to things like the nearest bus station, taxi rank, parking etc for each station. Instead what you get is an airline style moving dot on a map. Its seems to me that rather than it being a key feature of the platform it got onto the spec. as a "what else can we do" or "wouldn't it be neat"... so I wouldn't expect to see it improve. For comparison, I understand that stations along the Esk Valley Line (closer to a twig than a branch line) are developing station based local info/walking maps partly based on OSM. Not quite as high-profile but a more interesting use IMO.
