What do you mean by "test track"? Isn't that just part of the normal track that is used today?

[Flipstazzz]

@BayviewFinch Well when the skytrain system was being built they needed to test it out so they build the test track which is 1km long along terminal avenue, but yes the test track is part of the track that is used today

[SuperWarioWorld285]

@BayviewFinch It was the track that was used when testing the out the original MKI cars.

This is the test track but based on the number of traffic lights along Terminal Avenue I'm pretty sure this was taken well after 1983. Likely after 2000...

[jason123456789210]

@timtwoface is it now part of the normal track

[pandaSmore]

Wow that's awesome, where exactly was this test tack located?

[extremehockeyfan]

0:45 looked trippy xD

[Translink1001]

when you are Video Taping, why did you zoom the camera?

[Toronto2245]

Wow zoomed in makes it look like its going super slow

[meowchi87]

I remember the test track! 1983!!!! woo! I was.... 10...

[cactuarizamoron]

hey i've driven through there

[tangarbage]

nice use of zoom, it exaggerates all the corners and hills making it more interesting

and even if skytrain uses monstrous concrete viaducts, would rather that get built along the nearest highway to home than some stupid fossil fuel guzzling ground level bus only "gadgetbahn" roadway
