Best features:

Very creative use of lighting in many stations, would be nice to see that in Toronto, where since the Spadina line in the 1970's (which was very artist driven, most of the new/renovated stations use standard boxy looking fluorescent lights.

I also really like the (wood?, pseudo-wood?) ceilings in the outdoor stations, that adds a lot of warmth vs metal or concrete.

Worst Features:

Sameness, too many of the stations look the same.

Bland Colour palate: What's with Blue, Grey and Cream being the only legal colours? What did burgundy, forest green, or warm auburn ever do to deserve being banished from the line? A little bold splash of colour is nice, warm's the place right up!

Lack of seats - don't they expect older people to use the system. Those seats they have - did they get a deal from Corrections Canada?
