Arrivals and departures at Broadway-City Hall Canada Line Station *HD*

Those platforms are too short!

[Nouvellecosse]

Why are the tunnels so well lit? Doesn't it seem like a waste of power to have all those lights on in the tunnels when all there is to see are blank concrete walls?

[kingofthisuniverse]

@Nouvellecosse the system's driverless,so there's two huge windows in the front and on the back of each train.If there was no lightning passengers would just find it creepy to ride train through a tunnel that is almost always wet and you cannot see anything further than train's headlights can reach.Everything's for passenger's convenience,it's actually an issue for expo line.Lightning there is dull and the female at night feel scared

[bearchoirfan]

Wow! So frequent: 1-minute train intervals.

[VancouversLocalNerd]

@bearchoirfan Possible only with driverless AI controlled trains, some stations on the Expo line run at around 30 second intervals at rush hour.

but they sound SO like Bombardier MITRAC

[bearchoirfan]

@GordonFreemanD40 The sound is actually Japanese not European as for Mitracs.

@bearchoirfan created in korea

[GordonFreemanD40]

do trains use Bombardier MITRAC? they look like Toronto Rockets

[VancouversLocalNerd]

@GordonFreemanD40 The Toronto Rockets are Bombardier T35As, these are ROTEM EMUs, MITRAC s unique to Bombardier trains.

[GordonFreemanD40]

@VancouversLocalNerd no this thing has the MITRAC. Check on wikipedia

[tommyboy6181]

@GordonFreemanD40 Wikipedia was incorrect actually. There was no information from Bombardier, and there is speculation it uses Mitsubishi. Wikipedia was updated to just say standard AC motors until a source can be verified.

[GordonFreemanD40]

not confusing in toronto. e.g: Next Station: Sheppard-Yonge. Southbound to Union, or Next Train: For Downsview, OR on the front of train: light, light, DOWNSVIEW, light and light

[chinedumaster]

i am going to ride canada line next week

[ShinHolyAyato]

how come the intervals between YVR and Richmond trains were a bit shorter, is it just me?

[Hatchwork]

Just you

[VancouversLocalNerd]

Inbound is towards downtown, outbound is towards Richmond, there are also signs indicating which platform is which.

[adrianroam95]

@VancouversLocalNerd very confusing for visitors, i must say.
