nyc-subway-icons

SVG icons based on current New York City MTA subway lines.

Some notes

• Uses the official MTA colors.
• Note: There's no official color for the SIR (Staten Island Railway) line; this is approximated from the MTA website's low-resolution imagery. It doesn't look like the SIR icon is really used anywhere except for the MTA website.
• A good resource for SVG icons exist in the public domain on Wikipedia, which includes historical lines. I referred to these for guidance, but ultimately created my own from scratch. In comparison, I increased the X-height of each letter in relationship to the circle in my version.

To convert SVG to PNG

Get librsvg for your system, e.g.

brew install librsvg

Then:

for svg in ./svg/*.svg; do rsvg-convert -o "${svg%.svg}".png "$svg"; done
