Vancouver Transit Experiment [wip]

Vancouver is next on my list of Canadian cities to have some fun with imaging transit. As is usual for these things, it’s not a 100% realistic or accurate map but is meant as a bit of fun imaging what could be. The amount of waypoints this took is immense. Vancouver has a lot of rail right of way that isn’t being used so some sort of LRT (maybe?) thing could use a lot of it fairly easily. Though, they do make for inconvenient transfers so idk. Chapter 4 of my war on freight right of way begins. I gave up on the line names, idek what's going on there. Enjoy the usual chaos.
