Title: Toronto Transit Commission Signals Production
Post by: waterburn on August 11, 2012, 02:12:29 pm
Learn about the signs and signals used on the Toronto subway system. Check out our production here:

Our system is very similar to New York's using NXUR. Do we have any Toronto transit fans here?

Nice.. I was actually up in Toronto earlier this summer, and yes I have noticed their signalling systems are very similar to ours. They also seem to have a similar system of interlockings and track layouts. Now if only they had express trains up there...

Yes, however this is just the basics. Hopefully I can make another production on station timing etc. Our train operators have to do a one month long course.

Station time is also similar to NYC's ; In NYC, a number is displayed denotating the miles per hour to go in order to clear. However, in Toronto there is no aspect for station time.
