    Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

    Cost will also be the deciding factor whether people will take the GO or TTC. With the current fare structure or even the test fare structure with Main Station and Danforth GO, I still would rather bus to Sheppard\McCowan instead of Millken GO Station if I needed to get downtown from McCowan...

    Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

    So much for overhaul! What a bad impression. The first one with the wrap job breaks down, and has to sit in the kennedy loop.

    Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

    Projected subway usage is higher than LRT despite serving less corridors.

    Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

    I still think they will have 1 or 2 routers serving those who want to take the subway. Much like how Viva Green and Leslie Route 90 go to Don Mills station currently

    Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

    I also say three minutes would be best case scenario. You can easily add 2-3 minutes exiting a go train and cramming into the door down to union unless you are the very first person to exit the train and line your self up to the nearest exit where the train stops. Another 2 minutes for being...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    So far for my experiences, crew changes happen all the time at coxwell going eastbound, and it does not take more than 1 minute during afternoon peak. They always announce that there will be a couple minutes delay from the crew change, but it's never more than 60 seconds so far.

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    I was on the bay bus yesterday and noticed one of the Orion VII buses backdoor was full glass (top and bottom panel vs only the top). Is that new or were they testing something?

    Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

    The revised buses are a tad bit lower than the first bunch and I've seen them on the Pickering/Finch Station route and I can't remember if I've seen it for the Oshawa/Yorkdale route

    TTC: Fare system loopholes

    I do have a few loopholes for Presto in general. 1. Tap on a YRT Bus or station before tapping on a YRT express bus. Bingo 50 cents saved. 2. If you work at York Mills Station, and need to go Markham, one would take TTC to finch, then YRT/Viva. Nope, catch a go bus to finch station, then...

    TTC: McNicoll Bus Garage (Approved)

    With the Hybrid buses, I believe it has improved quite a bit...still that's quite a bit of exhaust. I remember driving by the Malvern garage on a winter day in 2003 at around 4:30 in the morning. The area was just the smell of diesel exhaust...

    TTC: McNicoll Bus Garage (Approved)

    Does anyone have any information on this? Someone sent me this. Appears construction will start in 2016. I know there has been lots of talk but no action on this but looks like we have an actual date now? Discuss

    Bad cell phone reception in tall towers?

    Which company are you with? It seems that Bell/Telus don't have as many towers as Rogers within the block of the condo. Being on Rogers would be your best bet for now

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    I hoped on a train a few weeks ago on a T1 on the B&D line and I noticed most of the lighting was using LED tubes instead of the standard florescent tube. Are they doing some testing on that?
