Talk:List of Mexico City Metro lines

Kind request

To all current and future editors, please do not change the name of the headers regarding the names of the lines. This is because each station's article links to the line it belongs to through the subheaders. Therefore, unless you want to go around and fix the links on each article (~170!) do not change the headers here. Thank you! -- Rune Welsh | ταλκ 02:30, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

Line A

Why is it called A rather than 10?? Georgia guy 21:55, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

I think it's because the line goes beyond the limits of the Federal District, as is the case with Line B. -- Rune Welsh | ταλκ 13:02, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

It is not. Line 2 always does. A and B are metro férrero lines (with traditional rail traction), and thus the difference. However, line 12 will be called that way and not C, even though it uses the férreo traction too.--Fluence (talk) 22:45, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

According to this article Line B uses rubber-tyred metro rolling stock left over from Line 1. 67.86.64.52 (talk) 23:36, 8 August 2011 (UTC)

In case anyone still wonders: I've come to learn that lines A or B had initially been called "alimentadoras" or "feeding lines"; this means they were to transport people from Greater Mexico City's municipalities in the State of Mexico and not in the Federal District (namely Los Reyes, La Paz, Ixtapaluca, Ecatepec, Tlalnepantla and Tecámac). That's why they were named by a letter. Line A, which uses traditional rail section, continues to be called "Metro Férreo"; unlike any other Metro transfer, an additional MXN $3.00 is charged when transfering from line A's Pantitlán into another line. Newly opened line 12 is the only other line in the system using traditional rail section, but it is not a feeding line (hence named by a number), since it runs within the boundaries of the Federal District. --Fluence (talk) 07:47, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

Then, is there something we can do about "10 and 11" in 'A' and 'B' headers?, if those numbered lines are built at some time in the future, it will be confusing. Also, according to the official STC page, correct line order is 1 to 9, then 12, and then A and B. Can this change be made without affecting other sections or links? On other order of ideas, the original 'B' route was from actual 'Ciudad Azteca' station to 'Villa de Aragón', and was intented to be built in the same fashion as 'A' back in the early 90's. The "1980's Line 10" (rubber-tyred, as the others) started at 'Villa de Aragón' through 'Buenavista' reaching west terminus at 'Hipodromo' area, in a section that is still nowadays in project. They decided to merge this 'B' and '10' routes into one, and current Line B was born. Projects for Lines 10, 11 and 13 still exist officially. Abbastraea (talk) 07:17, 5 February 2014 (UTC)

Indeed, there are plans for lines 10, 11, 13-17 and C-F. So the indication that lines A and B are also named 10 and 11 is false. I have lived in DF, and I have seen the plans myself. Therefore, the additional mentioning of - respectively - 10 and 11 should be deleted. Torval (talk) 17:07, 31 January 2015 (UTC)
