What is a Toronto Transit Commission code 299 or 506?

Indeed, this article on Transit Toronto reveals the job code:

506 PLANT MAINTENANCE DEPARTMENT Janitors

If you’re wondering about “Eglinton“, it is a subway station off Yonge St.

So when you hear 506 Eglinton, they’re calling for janitors and if this user is to believed on reddit:

506 is the main janitor…
504 is the secondary Janitor if there is one on duty. 502 is the Janitor’s supervisor.
So if you hear 506 or 504 x 2 or x3 and then a 502, someone’s in trouble for not answering their call.
I know this cuz I was a summer student janitor.

The 502 code appears to be updated since this comment.

I also lived in Toronto and still visit monthly. They’re calling for whoever is on duty at that station.

From the Googles:

299 Supervisor – Line Mechanics

506 is not listed, but this claims it’s “janitor”.
