I wouldn't mind "Eglinton Centre" as a compromise of sorts.

That would work for Yonge-Eglinton - but what would you name Allen-Eglinton?

"Mr. and Mrs. Eglinton. Here's your new baby boy, Allen."

How about Midtown.

"Mr. and Mrs. Eglinton. Here's your new baby boy, Allen."

Still better than Cedarvale....

Eglinton West or Cedarvale. Or Allen-Eglinton.

And I meant Centre in the sense that all double-named Yonge stations could take the name (i.e., Bloor Centre, Sheppard Centre, etc.)

I wonder when they intend to take down those ghastly verbose name placards from Sheppard West Station, already. I mean it's been two years since the change. The public knows by now.

TTC management being what it is, I'd bet a good chunk of money that those signs will still be there in 20 years.

Apologies if this has been posted already but this is the official map for the light rail.

^ Google images still has it but the original picture was deleted from Reddit

Placing a copy here in case the Google search one disappears too.

I have bemoaned this before.

Way to go after 70 years of Toronto subway operations! We all know that the TTC iconography has interchange stations as white circles with rings around them. Here we have white circles with triangles indicating directions. Note that now with this convention, Mount Dennis requires adifferent icon than the rest because it’s the current terminus. Stops look different too. This is ugly and I’m in favour of sticking with ”the look”. But that would require fewer (and less expensive) graphic consultants. To add insult to injury, we paid for this crap.

The one good thing about this signage is that is does indicate what GO line is at each interchange, rather than just a generic GO logo. But otherwise, why didn't they just let the TTC do the damn signage?

Map is already misleading too. There's no way Caledonia GO station will open in 2021. Or even be built at all. They should remove the logo for the time being until built.

That's unless they build a York University-like bar bones station.

I think to differentiate LRT routes from subway lines the subway lines still be numbered but use letters for the LRT routes where most of them are on the road and are really enhanced local service as opposed to rapid transit.
