or... crazy idea, it goes to Sheppard-McCowan AND Scarborough Centre! definitely an expensive option but if it's run elevated (maybe down the Stouffville corridor and old SRT corridor) I don't see why they can't run every other train to Scarborough Centre, and the rest to Sheppard-McCowan and...

Just speculating, do you think they are making Queen and probably Osgoode stations so deep to avoid the issues they encountered underpinning line 1 at Eglinton station?

I hope the bus terminal they end up going with has better indoor waiting areas than that plan did. Something more akin to the current station rather than just a very long green roof over your head

I mean unlikely but I'd love to see a cafe or something as well as the entrance in these buildings. A subway entrance does not need to take up the whole building.

There are plans at least for the Eglinton East LRT to run next to Morningside avenue on a separate through Morningside park so hopefully, that popularized not having to run LRTs in the Median (if it gets built) (also Humber college station on the FWLRT runs parallel to Highway 27 but its sunken...

I think extending the OL out to Markham makes way more sense than to Richmond hill and forming a loop. Richmond hill is already gonna have subway service, and Vaughan already does, leaving downtown Markham served only by GO. I get the Stouffville line is going to be a far better service than the...

My guess is that they want to unify transit wayfinding across the region, so when you see a station it's more recognizable. When you are already on the train though you know you are on transit, so using a different font is less of an issue, so they can keep iconic TTC font instead. Not a fan of...

Deutsche Bahn hell yea :cool:

made a quick visualization of what this extension could look like elevated Keeping with the same technology and rolling stock is more than doable for an elevated extension. These all stay within Sheppard's 36m right of way, but there is also ample room adjacent to the right of way in the form of...

I think North Toronto should be reserved for the station on Yonge on the midtown corridor if that ever happens, given that's what the station was originally called as far as I know.

sounded like you were talking about the crosstown for a minute that makes more sense

A new bike trail along Ellesmere was just finished between Markham and Military trail so with extensions of that east and west we could have a direct bikeway from STC to UTSC

I mean the city seems pretty hell bent on building this thing so I imagine it'll get done. Wouldn't call malvern "unneeded" and given the site they're hoping to put the MSF on there's gonna be track halfway to malvern from UTSC anyways so. Also don't think making Lawrence-Kingston at-grade again...

good point parking lot fills up pretty often as is

heres hopping increased ticket revenue makes up for it! the zoo is also actively trying to create a more appealing winter experience, so it's getting slightly less seasonal.

I thought they were looking into the site south of the 401 for the MSF. The Sheppard site is interesting, I'm not sure the plot is wide enough but otherwise, it's a pretty decent location. Also happy to see rail brought just a couple hundred metres closer to the zoo. Hopefully they get a branch...

There are some older buildings around midland that I would like to see preserved but the ROW should be wide enough that the subway can dodge them or temporarily pop underground to avoid any conflicts

not sure if it's what you're talking about but the TTC consolidated stops along elginton east when the rapidTO lanes came in to kind of simulate the stop spacing of the EELRT

They are amazing. I love the lighting and the displays. My only complaint is the plastic seats. Definitely slid around on them a bit then trains entered and exited stations.

Currently making a big ol fantasy map for fun but I think my ideas for finch-sheppard-and the eelrt are pretty realistic. I think line 6 should definitely be extended to malvern, meeting with the eelrt maybe even with a cross-platform transfer. If line 4 gets extended to mccowan, I think a...
