Dispite of the noise, this train is clean and really pleasant. And every time she annouces a station, the female voice, and the opening, gives me flashbacks from my vacations.
Im an American living in Tokyo, we have soo many trains its mind blowing, but the Sky Train in Vancouver has got to be one of my most favorite trains in the entire world. Take some notes America!
We have a skytrain which is the same and longer than vancouver which is in kuala lumpur malaysia we call it the kelana jaya line LRT you going to be facinated with the train ride.
Really neat, LAst time I was on the skytrain was april 2016 when i went to visit my brother. I don't think though that I have ever been as far as King George. as last time I crossed the skybridge was shortly after its completion when the train only ran as far as Scott Road.. When we went to visit him we did Main Street to - New Westminster and we also took Mellenium Line from New Westminster to Renfrew as this was back before the changes so that Mellenium line trains and expo line trains didn't share the same track. Pretty cool to see this whole run
Very advanced train system.! The blue and gray color scheme is the most attractive. Kudo's to the engineers and builders. I am sure each pillar cost thousands of dollars to construct. Very expensive system. The suspension bridge is unbelievable ! A true "sky-train." Not for the faint of heart ! The little train that could (fly).! Reply
My father was part of the SkyTrain protect. The columns was built and poured on site however the other sections were built precast and sent to the site
Much more fun watched at double speed. I wonder how they pick where the stations go? There seem to be long stretches with no stations then short sections with loads of stations. I would have thought a uniform placement at 1km intervals would mean everyone was in walking distance of a station. The bridge at 9:25 is spectacular.
It's basically where people lived in the 1980s when this line was built. Metrotown, New Westminster, etc, were built up with shops and even some towers already. The long stretch between New Westminster and 22nd Street, however, was an expanse of railyards, abandoned buildings, and single family homes.
How good are the connecting transfer routes with buses as far as schedules go? Calgary is terrible! Waiting times are bad, or if a bus is at the stop when train arrives, the bus leaves just as you arrive, and the next bus could be 40 minutes later! In the winter this is dangerous if the temperatures drop below minus 20 Celsius!
very immersive experience - even simulated the feeling of wanting to muzzle the person broadcasting their phone call to the whole railcar
After watching a lot of NYC subway rides, and the LIRR, this is refreshing for the area's beauty and lack of graffiti!
Me to it’s fun and refreshing I watch it to
💯💯💥💥

This channel is reminiscent of my wonderful Vancouver memories. I love skytrain and Vancouver from Japan.
Takes me back. Not been in Van since 2014. I miss it.

I remember riding the entire line with my parents back in the mid 90's. Nostalgia bomb. Guessing its pretty crowded these days...

USA tried that decades ago, now a waste of taxpayers folly.
Kudo's. Like something that belongs to Kudo. Nice.
It's been here for awhile, but it's alright.

Wonderful video. Brought back great memories of this trip on the SkyTrain when I was visiting Vancouver.
What a great view. Those mountains covered with clouds around it, we don't have such views in Holland. Thank you so much!
It brought me wonderful memories of Vancouver.
still think that the entrance westbound into edmonds / columbia are some of the coolest of any subway i’ve ever been on
I can watch this for hours
I love vancouver skytrain 🚉🚊😊👍 thanks you for ride on skytrain

I think I've found my new favorite channel, thank you for all your videos! :D
Majqq12 Thanks so much, that's nice to hear! Makes me want to keep doing more videos! 😊
So looking forward to my visit this year
This is wonderful, very immersive. I visited Vancouver in the early 90s. Beautiful city.
Both the speed and the smoothness of the ride are impressive!
Thank you for the great video! I love it!
What a great video! Thank you!
Those angle shots are the best.
wish we could have this system in the U.K its better than the system we have more reliable very clean
Not sure which one that would be, but the Docklands Light Railway in London looks very similar.
Hey this is Vancouver BC not East Midlands.
Except when it snows
Vancouver actually has one of the best metro systems in the world holy 💩
Beautiful city. spectacular views.
This video actually helped me make a getaway plan for my friend. Thank you so much.
Do you remember what car number you were on?
@1:01 I have yet to see a 6-car 1995 set 😜

What type of skytrain was it a mark 1,2, or new mark III innovia
Hi. This was the Mark II. Thanks for watching.
I enjoyed Skytrain and seabus in Vancouver
Which sky train is it mark1 mark 2 or mark 3
Is it sad I can tell it's a Millennium train just by the sounds? lol
How should that be sad lol
You get race with the cars below at some point
1:36 The train's engine sounds like the AirTrain at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City.
Both are driverless, and both are scary.
It’s the same tech
It should’ve said next station is
Lmao me too
Great video!
Great, thanks!
Are these trains still driverless?
very good video
Someone had an IT Crowd ringtone
