Hi everyone,
Just registered so that I can share my updated copy of
lightrail's SkyTrain Track Diagram for Metro Vancouver:
Comments, suggestions, etc. are welcome. I have the Illustrator file and an SVG version available upon request.
Note: I will not be posting (and request no-one else do so either) this updated version elsewhere (Wikipedia, Buzzer Blog, etc.) until the "Evergreen Extension" moniker is confirmed (controversy exists because government sources still claim it to be named the Evergreen Line despite signage at the new stations and other sources claiming otherwise) as well as the confirmation of the update to the Millennium and Expo Line routes (Millennium no longer going to Waterfront via Braid, and Expo branching at Columbia and the northern branch terminus station being Production Way-University).
Edit: Thanks
officedweller! Don't know how I missed that switch (I knew it was there). And I do recall, after passing by the tracks today, that they are indeed not in a basketweave formation east of Lougheed Station. Also added the note about the Vehicle Storage Facility.
Edit 2: Updated Broadway Extension based on the
UBC SkyTrain Group's website. It suggests an actual alignment (rather than my previous one which was merely connecting stations).
Edit 3: Updated Broadway Extension based on
City Report on re-alignment due to office building on Great Northern Way campus
Edit 4: Updated Broadway-City Hall (Broadway Extension) station location (based on
http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/show...62479&page=354 which mentions the knockout panel is on the west side of the Mezzanine level).
Edit 5: Added new platform being constructed at Commercial–Broadway for Spanish Solution (northbound trains at platform 3 - passengers disembark on new east platform and embark on existing (centre/island) platform).
Edit 6: Updated 57th Avenue Canada Line station (construction begins in 2018); fixed Expo/Millennium OMC connection and track layout; modified Langley Centre to use island/centre platform instead of side platforms (typical of terminus stations with 2 tracks, i.e. Waterfront, Lafarge Lake-Douglas - King George, VCC–Clark, and Arbutus are/were never meant to be termini (expected extensions)).
