User:Epicgenius/sandbox/Station layouts

This is a sandbox for the simpler station layout templates. More complex templates are also being developed:


 * User:Epicgenius/sandbox/Station levels - ground and mezzanine levels
 * User:Epicgenius/sandbox/Station track span - spanning the tracks
 * User:Epicgenius/sandbox/Station track
 * User:Epicgenius/sandbox/Station track direction - the service info
 * User:Epicgenius/sandbox/Station platform
 * User:Epicgenius/sandbox/Station top
 * User:Epicgenius/sandbox/Station bottom

Explanations
Some of these images are already used in small galleries here (two galleries), here, and here, but in the infoboxes the thumbnails will be larger and more readable (see three infoboxes above).

The current version doesn't take into account:


 * abandoned or closed levels (the only exception is Bergen Street (IND Culver Line), as its lower level hosts the express tracks of the same line that are unused, but still available for service)
 * curvature of stations
 * tracks not visible from the station (actually it means that I don't show levels without platforms; the only exception is 111th Street (IRT Flushing Line) where the express track is visible)
 * occasional bi-directional use of tracks (such as at Prospect Park (BMT Brighton Line))
 * offset platforms or short platforms
 * bumper blocks (dead ends are always shown where the service terminates and not where the track ends)
 * curtain walls
 * weekend or night changes in routes (only weekday services are shown)

This is how it looks in a usual gallery (with the mentioned examples of Bergen Street (IND Culver Line) and 111th Street (IRT Flushing Line)):

This is how it will look after conversion to templates:
