Just because the map is color coded, doesn’t mean that anyone has to use the “orange line” nomenclature. Your proposal is even more confusing in that regard as any out-of-towner apt to use the color scheme is completely lost. The old divisions are only of interest to historians and railfans.And as for cities that have branching colors, Boston also has unlettered branches on the Red Line, plus the BRS in Philadelphia, the Green Line in Chicago (and formerly Blue), the Orange Line in LA and abroad, London’s named line branch, and so do the numbered lines in Paris (7) and Moscow (4), where there is no better name for the branch than the terminal. But all of that is not really applicable because we DO have the distinct letters and numbers. |
