    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    They were working earlier, apparently. But yes, they have been down most of the morning! I heard one of the LRVs had a mechanical issue as well. I was on the third or fourth train out of Finch West. I think the train ahead of us had a bunch of foamers railfans jumping out to get the...

    Waterfront Transit Reset Phase 1 Study

    Forget waiting 20 years and spending a gagillion dollars to rebuild the union loop. Just divert Spadina streetcars away from union and send them along QQE to the portlands instead. Is it a perfect solution? No. But it can be accomplished easily.

    Toronto 1 Adriatic | 72m | 22s | BV Realty Partners | Superkül

    As someone very familiar with Weston Golf and Country Club (I worked there for many years) this render is baffling. On the map below, the rectangle is the actual location of this development. The arrow is my approximation of where the photographer would have been standing, and the direction they...

    I find those bike coaches are either completely full or completely empty, no in-between.

    Toronto Union Station Revitalization | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | NORR

    Not exactly...commuting was definitely a thing and Toronto had previously had a commuter railway that fed into the previous union station. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toronto_Belt_Line_Railway

    Toronto East Harbour GO and Ontario Line Station | 14.35m | 1s | Metrolinx

    There is definitely an architecture/infrastructure decline but I don't like framing it as a product of our culture. It's a lack of money that is to blame, and for that I blame three culprits: neoliberal taxation policies leading to reduced government revenue increased costs related to...

    Toronto Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Name the TBMs after the termini of the line...neither of which exist any more: "Ontario Place" and "Science Center".

    Toronto Eglinton Line 5 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    How exactly does the TTC "leverage their union". The TTC union is not the TTC. Their literal job is to oppose each other.

    Dundas West/ Bloor Mobility Hub +interconnected hub network (Metrolinx)

    The neighbourhood right next to bloor/dundas is called West Bend. That could be a potential station name.

    Toronto One Bloor West | 308.6m | 85s | Tridel | Foster + Partners

    Question: has the crane reached supertall status yet? 😁

    VIVA + York Region Transit

    I just noticed on the screen: is it referring to viva blue as "601"? Because if so, that's TERRIBLE. No one calls it that.

    Toronto Eglinton Line 5 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    Science Center was a problematic name anyways. Once the Ontario Line opened, the science center would have been slightly closer to the next station south.

    Dundas West/ Bloor Mobility Hub +interconnected hub network (Metrolinx)

    Well in October, we got this post: That showed a section of the tunnel already fully formed.

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    I've always like the lighting at St. Andrew. It makes the station unique. Granted, I'm not a daily user of the station, so maybe I'd get sick of it.
