Posted by Joe V on Tue Mar 20 20:32:24 2012, in response to WMATA: Metro releases system map effective 06 18 2012, posted by Sand Box John on Tue Mar 20 00:29:59 2012. This starts to blur the purpose of the color designations of the rail lines and they have double meanings. Need to go to letter designations with color only used for trunk route, not a route name, the NY method:. There aren't enough colors.From Fort Totten, there will be 3 routes: Branch Ave, Huntington, Franconia, all following the same trunk line thru L'Enfant Plaza. Yet 2 are called Yellow and 1 Green. Make one color, call them B, F, and H. Ditto for Orange & Blue. It is the same trunk route between Stadium and Rosslyn, make them the same color, call the 2 Oranges N & V, and the Blue L. For anyone headed to Largo, any Blue will do, but one Orange goes, the other does not. Very confusing. There are 3 routes, use 3 designations. |
