Toronto Ontario Line 3 | Metrolinx

lol. I always love NIMBY produced "renders" that always make projects look as terrible as humanely possible.

Reminds me of the Davenport overpass saga in the early days. I like how they darkened the sky and deleted the children.

I think we're kidding ourselves if we think these trains are going to be anything other than Conservative Blue. This is Dougie's baby -- they did it for license plates, they'll sure as hell do it for his own personal trainsets.

Maybe we'll get some cool designs and patterns on these! Maybe Dougie's face plastered all over the train?

The funny thing about this example is that the project has pretty much turned into exactly this.

Metrolinx cut the mural part of the project last time I checked.

Blue and white are the official colours of the city of Toronto so I don't really see any issues with it being blue. I actually suggested that the TTC should have incorporated blue into the new streetcars.

Damn, train daddy has changed.

Honestly I'd take anything other than the metrolinx standard gray, so blue would be pretty nice. Although, a blue train would be PTSD-inducing; I'll have a flashback to riding the then-closed Scarborough RT from where I lost my sense of hearing

Hot take, I like the gray. Not on Finch West, but I always like the silvery stainless steel design the TTC Subways had, especially on the TR where its quite clean, and I'm perfectly fine if the Ontario Line adheres to that. The Eglinton Line though I feel tries way too hard to match it.

Bring back maroon and cream.

As per the "Future Rapid Transit Map - 2031 projection" in the latest TTC Board report (page 13), it looks like the Ontario Line will be Line 3 and Blue.
Obviously take this with a hefty pinch of salt - "Names for future stations are indicative only" "Station locations and line extensions subject to change" etc
