i guess they can call it don mills/eglinton.They removed the Science Centre Station name.![]()
Superstore Station. It's right there. And there's already an Aga Khan on Line 5Aga Khan Station, surely
Not as surprise - they know that they'll get a ton of sarcastic comments on YouTube.They removed the Science Centre Station name.![]()
The train doesn't look anything like an LRT in a North American or English-language context. The capacity is well into the heavy rail category. With the ultimate 90-second frequency touted in the video, that's 40 trains of 600(?) passengers an hour - or 24,000 passengers an hour - which the TTC and the City have called subway in their planning documents.The Ontario Line trains are really high-floor LRTs / Stadtbahn vehicles.
uugh are we really going to bring up the capacity topic again?Not as surprise - they know that they'll get a ton of sarcastic comments on YouTube.
They show the Ontario Line ending at a future Line 5. I guess that means the central section of Line 5 is still 7+ years from opening - so there may be some artistic licence here.
There's other places where similar tourist facilities are long gone - but the name remains. Look at Crystal Palace station in London. The Crystal palace has been gone since 1936, but the name remains.

For TR on Line 1, if you go with 1,080 a train, and a frequency of every 2 minutes, you are looking at 30,240 an hour. So about 24,000 versus 30,000.The only way to get a true picture of the capacity is to compare the hourly capacity on line 1 and line 2. Does anyone have those?
The station is very close to a Mormon meetinghouse. Perhaps the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints purchase the naming rights to the station and call it the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints Station, especially given how rich that organization is and how much that organization is known to fund LRT operations, especially in its headquarters in Salt Lake City?Superstore Station. It's right there. And there's already an Aga Khan on Line 5
Move it one stop over and call Aga Khan on Line 5 DVP or Ferrand what it is called nowSuperstore Station. It's right there. And there's already an Aga Khan on Line 5
But why?Move it one stop over and call Aga Khan on Line 5 DVP or Ferrand what it is called now
Aga Khan has 4 major sites in that area - Aga Khan Park, Aga Khan Museum, Aga Khan Park, Aga Khan Multigenerational Housing (opening 2026). Also Wynford Drive is called Aga Khan Boulevard as per the city change recently. Furthermore, Aga Khan is one of only few Honorary Canadian Citizens. See the below link for the Aga Khan's work in Canada. It only makes sense this station to be called Aga Khan.But why?
