Line 1 and 2 maps (not sure about Line 4) both use the vertical styling at stations so maybe that's something they've decided to be consistent on.

I agree, I'm just saying the new maps they've been installing look terrible with the LED's and I heard that they were going to turn them off. 🤔

I thought the plan was to just shut off the lights? They've been replacing the maps with new maps that don't have transparent holes for the lights.

For those curious this pic shows the cross over just south of St. Clair: https://www.toronto.ca/explore-enjoy/history-art-culture/online-exhibits/web-exhibits/web-exhibits-transportation/the-ttc-100-years-of-moving-toronto/canadas-first-subway-construction-begins/

The plan AFAIK is to turn them off. In fact some of the TRs already have new maps with solid white circles instead (the light can still pass through but it doesn't look great).

Toronto's historical imagery doesn't go back far enough but I think you can see the old path it followed here: http://jpeg2000.eloquent-systems.com/toronto.html?image=ser12/s0012_fl1947_it0018a.jp2

Could be anything really. Could have shifted resources to underground work until the Spring, shifted resources to Yonge/Eglinton, etc

Saying Cedarvale is clear is a bit of a stretch

On downhill sections of track there were timed blocks which are designed to prevent humans from going over the speed limit. The signal would show red with a flashing white light. If the train approached at the correct speed, the signal would turn green or yellow before the train actually reached...

I'm pretty sure the trip arms were tied down as ATC was activated along the line. I'd imagine the failsafe is if ATC loses contact with the train or the train isn't obeying ATC commands, it'll estop.

Wasn't the train in question the train that hit the person?

Well during the weekends there are 3x as many trains as a single weekday and those are 100% tourist trains.

DC actually has a subway station so deep that the only way to access it is via a high speed elevator. There are no escalators/stairs other than an emergency stair well. But to your point, that'd never happen here.

Ran along the railpath yesterday and the "tree protecting fencing" is being put up along large sections of the trail.

I don't think it's funded (only the extension of the current Railpath is) so if it will happen some day...it's a long time away.

If you look at historical street view images, you'll see why there is a gap in the fence. Around 2014 they were replacing the poles. Looks like just as they build the fence, this pole replacing projected may have started which would explain why there was still a gap in 2014 with both poles...

The weekend trains skip West Harbor

The app shows only regular bikes available at that station. Hmmm. Is the app misreporting e-bikes as regular bikes??

I think the biggest problem in T1 is US-bound flights. With Air Canada metering the security line, it doesn't help when US customs is already a bottle neck in itself. I flew to the US Friday morning. Wasn't allowed to get into the security line until my flight got called. When I was allowed to...

Midtown always has a shortage of bikes. They only seem to refill the stations once a week in this area.
