The Scarborough RT (SRT or RT), officially Route 3 Scarborough RT, is a rapid transit line on the Toronto subway and RT system in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The line is internally referred to as Route 3 (formerly route 603), but this number is not used by the public or shown on TTC maps and signs. In March 2011, it was announced that the Scarborough RT will be expanded westward along Eglinton Avenue to form the Eglinton Crosstown LRT line, while the current system will also be renovated and upgraded.

  • The Scarborough RT (SRT or RT), officially Route 3 Scarborough RT, is a rapid transit line on the Toronto subway and RT system in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The line is internally referred to as Route 3 (formerly route 603), but this number is not used by the public or shown on TTC maps and signs. Rather than the long subway passenger cars used by the Toronto Transit Commission's three other rapid-transit lines, it runs a medium-capacity rail transport system using Intermediate Capacity Transit System (ICTS) Mark I vehicles built by Urban Transportation Development Corporation (UTDC) and powered by linear induction motors. They are essentially the same as the original fleet of the Vancouver SkyTrain and that of the Detroit People Mover, although unlike these other operators, the TTC has opted to run them semi-automatically with a driver on board. The line has six stations and is km ( 1) in length. It is operated by the Toronto Transit Commission and administered as part of its subway system, although the Scarborough RT differs technologically from the city's other three lines in a number of respects. RT simply stands for "rapid transit", as the name "subway" seemed inappropriate for a line with only a small section underground. Internally, the TTC uses the name "rapid transit" to refer to all four lines. The term is sometimes used for streetcar lines as well. The line's tracks are of standard gauge, unlike those of the rest of Toronto's streetcar and subway lines. In March 2011, it was announced that the Scarborough RT will be expanded westward along Eglinton Avenue to form the Eglinton Crosstown LRT line, while the current system will also be renovated and upgraded.
