    Well, a big snowfall is in the forecast for Sunday morning. Hopefully nobody has any plans....

    Whatever happened to pricing advertising space at "what the market will bear"? If half the advertising space is empty, the TTC should cut ad prices until they fill all their spaces again. Reduce by 50% if need be. Or more if need be. Aside from printing costs (let's assume those are...

    Question you would probably know the answer to: The Wikipedia article on Line 2, in the section titled "Depot", suggests the line isn't using the newest trains because they can't be stored at the Greenwood yard. "The Greenwood Yard will be inadequate as it is completely full with no room to...

    The forum allowed me to edit my post from this morning, and I was able to add a clip of your picture from Nov 15. Hope you don't mind!

    I didn't realize the sign had been updated to show the line number, before it changed again. That's crazy!

    As promised:: Photo taken March 27 2024 June 5 2025 Ocotber 25 2025 November 15 2025 (edit - added later - another clip from pleaseLRT) November 25 2025 (clip from picture posted by pleaseLRT) November 29 2025 (today) I was wrong, the "5" is orange, as it should be, not red (hmm...

    This morning, this entrance still looked like this. In late afternoon, a new sign had appeared! Sorry, no picture, maybe I'll take one tomorrow, weather permitting. From what I can see, comparing it to an older photo, changes are: (1) There is a red box around the whole sign, which wasn't...

    Again, from what I've been told, the LRT service will be replaced by a night bus at night, and probably in late evenings after 10 PM for the first few months. Furthermore, subway lines over the last decade or so have been closed in late evenings on weekends or Mondays, for track and/or signal...

    Current bus service on Eglinton is so bad, whatever happens next can't be worse. (Crosses fingers.🫰) Also, I used to agree that bus service along Eglinton would likely be removed in future, but everyone on here was telling me I was wrong!

    I presume you mean, if service is limited, it will cause many people to take the bus instead, so buses should use stops outside the station, at present-day transfer points. I suspect that will happen anyway, as long as parallel bus routes exist. Buses going into a station will also stop...

    This is immediately clearer than the existing map. The only further change I'd make is to fill in the line for Line 4 to solid purple; the thin outline makes it almost invisible, or might suggest it's a future or former line, not actually in use. I'd like to see this map recommended to the TTC...

    I was hanging out at Eglinton and Pharmacy this morning. Saw 6 eastbound trains go by over some 20 minutes, then 1 westbound. Seemed a bit odd.

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    At the risk of being told, "you're crazy" (go ahead and say it, I probably am anyway :) ), what if, 40 years from now, Toronto decides that it wants to run subway trains where the Eglinton and Ontario lines are now? We've already got tunnels and elevated sections for much of the lines, we...
