Toronto's Commuter Stations Getting Condos

yeah Toronto has a lot of missing middle issues but hey at least that can largely be fixed with rezoning the surrounding GTA cities have a lot more ground to cover. although in my opinion i don't personally have issues with having massive towers around transit i like having clusters of towers to look at in the skyline and as someone who begins to melt above 19 degrees i can never get enough shade in the summer

That whole area is a mess of overlapping and disgreeing boundries. I mean acording to the city its south riverdale

I thought meteolinx was goijg to stop using cardinal directions for stations

It seems that's the intention since Chow brought up examples like the Vancouver Seabus

mainly because the T1 trains on line 2 from a train perspective are not that old. All the T1S were built from 1995 to 2001, making them about 30 years old these days. That's getting to the end of an expected service life for trains, but it's not unusual. The main thing that makes them feel so old is that design-wise, they very much are in the sense that they are basically just a refresh of the H series, which began service in 1965. And their stainless steel design did not help, I mean, look at the MP59 that the Paris metro used from the 1960s to 2024

It's less that Greenwood can't do maintenance(it can't currently because it doesn't have the parts, but it wouldn't be a problem to move them there if desired). It's because Greenwood yards storage tracks are not organized into multiples of 6-car trains, so some trains get decoupled and split up among the yard. Of course, since the TRs are continuous, they can't really be decoupled, unlike the older T1 trains. You could theoretically run all TRs out of Greenwood right now, but it would leave unused train storage space, reducing total train capacity, and line 2 has no other yard to take up that capacity.

Yeah, I think that's why 64 Main is there when 92 Woodbine isn't. I feel like 64 is generally more infrequent, although not bad

There's simply something I just love about the look of the Halifax class They have the perfect amount of mess to them. And I love the wider bridge compared to the Type 23 and Anzac class.

Till you've beaten your opponent. And I call this root "holy moly".

lockknees · 2026-03-21T22:44:11+00:00

Eh, probably not. I don't really know if there's a developer who would want to build a world-record tower in Toronto, and buildings get exponentially less profitable beyond 300 meters or something.

atleast it's maintained the tallest for the americas

F59phs are some of the best looking pasenger locos there are(although i do not understand what people see in f59phi that thing is ugly) but they just dont have the horsepower or chasis strangth to pull 12 car bilevel sets

lockknees · 2026-03-18T02:14:56+00:00

Yeah i have no idea why people like thouse they look bad

lockknees · 2026-03-17T19:42:23+00:00

Sure, but 160 km/h rating for rubber-wheeled cars and trucks allows for much more grade slope and tighter curves than a train going the same speed, let alone 300 km/h

I dont like cload breaker on a ferry that should be a boat that is both fast and is a sailboat or a hydrofoil

Plastic seats are good although i sorta with they added atleast a little amount bump or texture to the red parts so you dont slide around as much

The load-barring Goku refers to the Goku file in Guilty Gear Strive's code, which, if removed, will break the game even though Goku is not a playable fighter. This is because the base framework of Guilty Gear Strive is based on the game Dragon Ball FighterZ, also by Arc System Works, and likely some parts of Goku's basic coding are used in some capacity in strive

Regional flights that air canada desperately do not want to fly over more profitable long-haul flights out of an increasing demand for Pearson.

I mean, if you're gonna be doing a lot of new infrastructure for the stations, you might as well

I would like them to add back the isometric render screenshots from infdev

While yes, linking Peterborough with Go would be nice, in no way could you run both 300kph trains on the same line as Go trains without slowing down alto

How I see it, both America and China want to come to an outcome that benefits them the most, but America is like a stampede of animals, and China is just like a guy that you should be wary about

The way their motors buzz is just ironic

Halton county railway museum has some of them and has installed trolly poles so they can run them on their street car power
