Mexico City Metro Lines
Presented below the lines within the Mexico City Metro system, as of 2006, organized by number. The order in which they are listed follows the convention used by Sistema de Transporte Colectivo (the public company that manages the system) to list the stations in north-south and west-east fashion. This system however may not be used by other sources.
In addition to listing all current 195 stations, the opening date of each one of them is also provided, including their type of construction, which can fit in one of three categories: underground, surface ("street-level") and elevated (in form of an elevated viaduct). In total, 127 stations are under ground, 52 are located on street-level and 16 are elevated.

“Every living language, like the perspiring bodies of living creatures, is in perpetual motion and alteration; some words go off, and become obsolete; others are taken in, and by degrees grow into common use; or the same word is inverted to a new sense or notion, which in tract of time makes an observable change in the air and features of a language, as age makes in the lines and mien of a face.”
—Richard Bentley (1662–1742)
