That's true, but it doesn't mean it's not impressive!
To think that in almost 10 years our transit map will be like that...
To be realistic... (based on that map)
The B/D line should be extended to Sherway Gardens, but in the east I think the only possible extension is to STC, which is even iffy itself. Either extend the SRT up McCowan, or make a McCowan LRT, which could be run either by YRT, the TTC or both.
The Eglinton line should be Subway, but for a start it should terminate at the airport and Kennedy station. It'd be a while for expansion in the east, but expansion in the west could come sooner.
Sheppard Subway should be converted to LRT, but it could be extended to Downsview station.
Finch should be some sort of Rapid Transit route, whether it's Subway, RT or grade separated LRT. It would only make sense for it to terminate at the Airport.
The DRL should only extend up to Eglinton on the East side, terminating at Don Mills & Eglinton Station. On the west side, there should be a big loop station when Queen turns into The Queensway, and should be the new terminus of the King Streetcar. It would then go up Roncasvales to Dundas West station, where it would terminate (Hopefully this is what is actually going to happen ) The Jane and Don Mills sections should just be the TC LRT.
The Queen Streetcar should be converted totally to LRT and run all the way down the Queensway, creating a full Queen line and a full Waterfront West line (emphasis on this one because it would be very useful)
I say for the YUS expansions, let the Spadina extension run up to Vaughn Corporate Centre, but the Yonge line should terminate at Steeles. With the extension, the entire line should be extended up to Richmond Hill Centre, but should then go to YRT once Viva Blue finishes as subway (this is a fantasy map thread, right?) Let the Steeles platform be big enough to accommodate for 2 separate stations within it, so there can be a transfer in the middle between the to Subways on the same platform.
Tell me the flaws in that plan. I'm trying for it to actually be plausible in the next little while
