King Street underpass at the transit hub

[C Plus]

The previous track was flat and then had a big steep incline toward Stratford. Raising the tracks at the bridge had a twofold effect; made it easier to get King under it, and it made the incline long and shallow, instead of short and steep.

I'm not sure what you guys are talking about alignment wise - if you zoom in from Victoria, it's straight as an arrow across the bridge. While construction was happening, the tracks were shifted North in a little bump-out.

Have not read the whole thread but if you stand on the tracks currently the new alignment shifts a little south to go over the new over pass and then shifts back north to the existing railway. If you stand on Duke or Park you can see the alignment shift.
