Wait a minute! How can the Line 1's Eglinton Station be operational with all that construction going on? Wouldn't we be able to connect with Line 5's Eglinton Station? We don't leave Line 1's Bloor Station and go outside to transfer to Line 2's Yonge Station.

Okay this aspect of the project finally seems to be moving at a decent pace.

Here's what the underpass will eventually look like. This part of the station is unpaid and will connect the four corners of the Yonge-Eglinton intersection

Yes indeed thank god we have an Eglinton station on the Eglinton line.

any of those 3 Chicago stations on a Chicago line though? At least there’s some kind of logic there.

Although LA’s station names make more sense since they basically give you the cross-streets in many of the station names.

I give you Tokyo.

This station is the main reason why crosstown is delayed.

At least there's no ambiguity there. But what happens when they extend a line?

How do passengers get to the Eglinton Station on Line 1?

How do passengers get to the Eglinton Station on Line 1?

You mean currently, during construction? Last time I was up there, the entrance was via the north doors of Canada Square. There was no concourse access, you had to cross the street if you weren't on the SW corner. (This was a few months ago; it may have since changed.)

And they have been running the light rail vehicles through Line 5's Eglinton Station since November of 2021.

This is still true. You must access Line 1 from South West corner of Y/E. Also you can not (legally) cross the street on the south side to go East-West.

There is also the South entrance that is open.
