interesting.....one other colour that can be considered....blood red....considering how much blood has been spilt on this god forsaken project.
Primary colours:
Red - TTC surface
Orange - Line 5
Yellow - Line 1
Green - Line 2
Blue - Line 3/Accessibility
Purple - Line 4
If the TTC doesn't want to adopt black/grey/white, they're going to have to get creative. In planning documents once upon a time, Finch West was shown in planning documents as having a washy green/toothpaste colour, and Sheppard East LRT had a silver/grey.
Nice find! I always wanted to know the official colour codes. Used to try and match the colours by eye, also relied on a wiki page (which never seemed right). But this doc is great.
Lavender. In any case, this exercise feels a little like picking out the china patterns on first date.

When will the construction of this actually start? Is there already funding? Has the specifics been worried out? Will I be dead before this begins?
We were probably closer to a DRL (medium or long) 5 years ago now.
Then we had a continuous Scarborough-Eglinton LRT that would feed people in at Science Centre. We had a pro subway major who had influence with the Premier and PM. It looked like Council could have worked out some type of compromise involving keeping Eglinton grade-separated (i.e. away from cars), but downgrading the priority of the Sheppard Subway and prioritizing the DRL.
For all the talk of DRL, there has been no planning of any sorts on extending the DRL beyond Danforth - not even to the Leaside Don Valley crossing. We are constructing the Don Mills-Eglinton station with no provisions for DRL. The B-D extension to Scarborough has sucked up an extra couple of Billion of cash that is not going to the DRL.
That's not including the lines under construction or in the planning stages.
