(1 Y-U line) (4 Sheppard line) }} (total) | pass_year = | pass_percent = | pass_system = | pass_rank = 3rd of 69 | mpassengers = | services = }} Sheppard-Yonge is a subway station on the Yonge-University and Sheppard lines in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is the third-busiest station in the system, after Bloor-Yonge, and St. George, serving a combined total of approximately }} people per day. ==History== Sheppard Station opened in 1974, in what was then known as the Borough of North York. The subway extension from Eglinton to Finch was planned to open in two stages with Sheppard as the temporary terminus, but construction north of York Mills was delayed by various problems and in 1973, York Mills was opened as the temporary terminus instead; Sheppard Station then opened together with Finch in 1974. The H-2 class subway cars delivered in 1971 included destination signs for "Sheppard via downtown" on the expectation that it would be a terminal station. The station was expanded and renamed "Sheppard-Yonge" in 2002 with the opening of the Sheppard subway line, for which this station became the western terminus. The renaming was similar to that of Bloor-Yonge Station. Unlike Bloor-Yonge, where the signs on the Yonge line platforms still read "Bloor" and those on the Bloor line read "Yonge", Sheppard-Yonge is given its full name on both sets of platforms; all existing signs within the station were changed to give the new name. At that time, this station became accessible with elevators. Destination signs on Sheppard line trains have shown the station both as "Sheppard-Yonge" and as "Yonge Street". When the Voice Automation System was added onto Toronto's subway trains, the stop announcements on Line 1 (Yonge) referred to the station as "Sheppard" and the announcements on Line 4 (Sheppard) referred to the station as "Sheppard-Yonge". The new Toronto Rocket subway trains which use a new computer generated stop announcement system refer to the station as "Sheppard-Yonge" and play a secondary announcement: "This station connects with the Sheppard subway", and for some of them most recently: "Change here for Line 4" as it operates on Line 1. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sheppard–Yonge (TTC)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
