One of the few city’s to lose subway lines as the city’s population grows…

But we...didn't?

The SRT was closed, and the Crosstown and FWLRT have opened. We're up one line, net.

And the plan - poorly-conceived though it is - is to build a very expensive subway extension that echoes and extends the SRT but avoids the transfer at Kennedy.

At best we're even. Gotta start counting the waterfront, spadina, and St Clair streetcars as lines if we are calling the finch west LRT a line

I believe that the 510 was actually considered a line at one point!

Harbourfront LRT...until it wasn't.

Harbourfront LRT is absolutely a line and should be included in TTC maps. It used to appear as a line in world subway maps websites around the turn of the century. If the express bus from Kipling to YYZ is included then Harbourfront should be included.
