Trouble on the Green Line

It started out as a bomb threat at Berri-UQAM station, the moved to the metro being closed from Pie-IX to Honore-Beaugrand and then while I was at Lionel-Groulx, I witnessed a door being jammed and decided to continue rolling film. A "Chef Incident" was nearby and he quickly fixed the door isues, and the train was ready to go.

@adadassadasdadsa Good thing that the doors have soft rubber bumpers on them, so it doesn't hurt too much.

@MysticMTL Right

But it hurts when the door is closing itself and you get your fingers stuck in the doors.

PS:I am a Montrealer and the government in Canada is the most corrupted ever!!!

Its a piece a shit this metro of ours and it will be replace by another piece just to make us pay more for the monthly fare thank you :)

@dhellraisa I believe it mentions it a few times on the STM official site, and it's in the Metro history book, and on the news each time they do a story about the age of the metro and interview a maintenance worker in those stories. 99 days seems pretty reasonable, but you have to include 40+ trains operating on this line into your calculations, so it multiplies the chances of a breakdown on the line by that much. And this is also an average of 250k per breakdown, some could be longer,some less.

[dhellraisa]

@MysticMTL Where did you get your stats regarding 250k ?

The green line is 22km long. It would mean (on average) one breakdown at every 11 363 runs.

The metro is opened about 19 hours per day.

If the exact same train makes a at every 10 minutes at every working hour(which it does not) that would mean 6 rides per hour and (6*19)114 runs per day.

11 363 (total rides) / 114(rides per day) = one breakdown every 99 days

You really mean to tell me each train only breaks down every 99 days ?

[MysticMTL]

@CPR9818 It may seem like often, but they breakdown every 250,000km's on average, which I still find exceptionally reliable, and compared to the rest of the world's subway systems, it's the most reliable!
