This template is bloated edit

Besides the fact that its straight up wrong at least one place (the RI originates south of the subway and never crosses it), this template is bloated. There's a fair bit of unnecessary information (the loop's layout + bridges, various metra services, etc) which end up confusing the reader (see [1]this twitter post). IMO the layout should be more similar to Template:North Side Main Line (CTA) in terms of external details. I am willing to make these changes, but I am asking for the thoughts of others before I go through with them. Piemadd (talk) 16:54, 4 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
