SkyTrain Action - 1 Hour of Mark 1 SkyTrain Cars (4K)

Recently, the brand new Mark V started testing in Ontario and preparing for service in early 2024. Next year is the start of a new SkyTrain car, but also the end of the line for an old SkyTrain car. The first Mark 1s will start being phased out of service as the Vs start arriving. Many people who love the Mark 1s, the cars will be missed when they start disappearing from the tracks.....so here is 1 hour of 4K Mark 1 Action, including interior shots! Enjoy! ;)
*UPDATE*: It turns out 1991 Mark 1 Pair 133 and 134 were recently withdrawn from service, making them the first Mark 1 Trains to be retired.

It never fails to surprise me how the train manages to make the same sound when stopping and departing.

[@lvalledor3440]

The sound of the Mk1s leaving the station is always very satisfying to hear. It's music to the ears & truly a railfan's ASMR. Whenever I come to Vancouver & take the Skytrains I always hope to catch the Mk1s. 😊😊

[@gregoescobarvarela6233]

me, too I ♥ THE MK1S

There is no way that Mark I turned into a Mark III at 6:18. LOL.

[@metropolitantransit7276]

I like to imagine he was just holding the camera for as long as possible.

SkyTrain은 고요하고 독특했습니다.

The Mark 1 SkyTrain sounds when arriving and departing are so amazingly lovely and the best ones in Vancouver and they make me feel like I wanna ride them in person, because I just love those motors and I also love their interiors, layouts, seats, red doors and door guards, and the round vents on the ceilings! I am so sad to see every Mark 1 cars being phased out and retired and will no longer run on the tracks since it has been 4 decades of being in service on the network and I'll also miss the sounds of them, but they'll be replaced with the new mark V SkyTrain cars and I can't wait to see how they'll run like and their interiors!

Let's effing go dude, you know I'm here for 25:00. A few questions:
- Was there anything that happened to your knowledge that led them to send that train to VCC-Clark, i.e. special event, train backlog/delay on the Expo Line, etc.?
- Did the "next station" announcement when approaching Commercial Drive say "change here for the Expo Line", "(...) Millennium Line", or not at all?
- Was the "train to" announcement at Commercial Drive "this is a Millennium Line train to VCC-Clark" or just "train to VCC-Clark"?
I encountered this type of train once last year and it used the former two announcements, but the difference was that the empty train symbol for my train was switched to the yellow Millennium Line symbol at Gilmore whereas it was not for yours.

[@mark1icreateartvideosskysytgam]

lol how would i know

[@andrewchuang8433]

Well I hope the mark fives can drive onto the millennium line
Well the thing is they’re gonna have a very quiet sound same as the mark fives and mark 2s
That’s why they are actual cousins

[@carvolthproductions555]

Yeah. The Mark II.5s, IIIs, and Vs have the same traction motors.

[@mark1icreateartvideosskysytgam]
