for the other person who compared it to the edmonton lrt, toronto's subway does have a 3rd rail, it's covered tho, but there's only 2 outdoor stations anyway so snow isn't really a problem
as for the detail of how they got there... 10min run is exagerrated. there's only a very narrow walkway on the side of the tracks, enough space to hang on but if a train is coming at you full speed it's not exactly safe if you catch my drift.
in reality they had to run on active track about 200 meters / ~700 feet? and then the rest of the way is unused as it leads to the empty station.
lower bay station is what they use for movies in toronto. heck even most movies which aren't even fully filmed in toronto will use bay station if they have a scene calling for an abandoned station... everything but ninja turtles
