DISCOVER MONTRÉAL:

[wavelength]

Someone in the video said, "it's like a Disney train". That's because, Disney Land monorail in California back in the 50s, was built and designed by Bombardier of Montreal.

[domdesjardins]

En tant que Montréalais qui voit ces design tous les jours, jai ete surpris d'enfin remarquer la beauté de nos stations grâce à ce reportage.

I guess being born and raised in Montreal leaves you quite jaded to a lot of this lol. Never really looked at the STM metro system from this perspective. Seeing this video definitely makes me more appreciative of what we have here.

One of the things about the Mtl Metro I get a kick out of is when you're riding in the newer Azur cars that are open to each other inside. If you set yourself in the middle while it's rolling, you can see down a bunch of cars in either direction. You really get a dramatic sense of how the tunnel goes up, down and sideways. It's a jewel!

Growing up and living in Montreal I think many take it's beauty for granted. I appreciate this video for reminding me how beautiful it is. Hope to return for a visit when this Pandemic is over.

[phlookode]

En ce temps de pandémie, ça me manque beaucoup. The things you take for granted...

[Mlem]

"Un train immobilisé cause un ralentissement de service sur la ligne verte....d'autres messages suivront...prochain arret berri-uqam" 😂😅

[echan]

Comme montréalaise d'adoption, je suis heureuse que des personnes venant d'ailleurs remarquent la beauté, les œuvres d'art, l'architecture, le mobilier...du métro. Chaque station a sa personnalité, sa signature. Ce qui le rend unique. La prochaine fois que vous prendrez le métro, regardez autour de vous, vous serez surpris de ce que vous pouvez découvrir. Il m'arrive de descendre à une station juste pour voir la station avec les yeux d'un touriste. Merci d'avoir fait ce vidéo pour me le rappeler.

Yeah I'm born and raised in Montreal. When I moved to Toronto, I was so appalled by the TTC. Besides having wifi and AC on the new trains, the service is ALWAYS down and employers almost expect you to be late. I've been on Chicago, Atlanta, England and a few other city trains. Montreal is the nicest by far. So much you take for granted in that beautiful city!

[duduububu]

Been living there my whole life, never really cared about the architect. From now I will appreciated more

[BenLomonRail]

Very honored to have my work featured here. Great tribute to the metro made by so many people that it has touched. 😁

[PhxSml]

Fun fact: All the dirt from the metro was made into an artificial island on the side of Montreal which is Île Notre Dame. On it there’s a casino and Nascar circuit where the annual Grand Prix Formula One race is held.

[kartelzbak]

i am from Ottawa but i ll admit this Montreal is one of the best citys in the world.... unlike To and Va MTL is walkable full of street art and just a cool ass city...

[HaiYenNguyen-ijcl]

As an Montrealer, I took this for granted...Now away from Montreal, I know this is where I belong to...Thank you for such a beautiful work!

[damondominique]

There I go losing my metro card and then finding it at the bottom of my bag at 2:40. Classic n00b move.

As a public transit fan from Shanghai 🇨🇳 who now studies at McGill University, I would say those new trains (Azur/MPM-10) are simply amazing. Many stations of the metro are quite spacious, and it only takes a few steps to transfer between different lines. Unlike in Shanghai where u need to walk a long way to transfer between certain lines.

When I was studying at the Université de Montréal in the early 1980s, the Blue line hadn't opened yet. We had to ride the 51 to Snowdon. I just came back from a week in Montréal in 2022, and rode the Blue line directly to my old dorm. We walked through Outremont in October fall glory, picked up a bixi and rode all around the mountain, reinforcing the reality that it's an amazing city. That was something I appreciated back then, but I can say today it's just gotten better and better.

[waverleyc.]

When this covid-19 fiasco ends, I'm flying over from Australia to visit you Montreal!

[jonlokonga]

As a Montrealer I definitely take the beauty of of it all for granted I never realized how awesome our metro system is.so proud to be part of this city 😝💕

[sylviedaragon]

It’s fun to see that what we consider normal and usual is considered special and beautiful by outside eyes. Thank you!❤
