- Montréal has a comprehensive commuter train network. Seen here are trains running on the Deux-Montagnes line and the Mascouche line. Note the overhead electrification, necessitated by the long Mount Royal tunnel that takes trains into central Montréal.

Taken on June 20th and 21st, 2018.
I love how some of them are just like our NJT trains
Ford Escape most of the NJT are made in Québec... (Bombardier)
I realized that now lol
Sadly these cars we have are in their final years as this will be replaced by the rem eventually
@@gaelfortier2668 I dont think so most have to made in the US thats the law
Gaël Fortier no, France made the ALP-45 and 46
I like those doors and the propulsion
I'm subscribed
I like the doors to the curved ones
Sounds like the AC propulsion used on Rome’s Metro
I liked Canadian E-Bell in Canada because it’s most popular sound on EMU’s. Caltrain’s Baby Bullet cab cars sounded like this 4:45
It’s a Transtronic bell
The MR-90s appear to be more closely related to the Comet III than they are to the Comet IV although the MR-90s came a year before the Comet IV
Nice! I’m dying to film trains in Montreal!!
The REM is coming next year between Montreal central station and the south shore and you have to come and make a video about it.
EXO dosent give a crap about this unfortunately
Thats amazing! Cool video! I never knew they had a commuter rail.
the one that is a EMU is the Deux-Montagne line...
There's also the Candiac Line, Saint-Jérome Line, Vaudreuil-Hudson Line, Mascouche Line and Mont-St-Hilaire Line...
Cool! Thanks for the information!
@@gaelfortier2668 Yeah, those are all diesel lines, and the vaudreil Hudson not olny used to go to rigaud, but it was part of the CP transcon line to gatineau. I checked in Jim saugnessy's book theres a old map from the fidties, and Mother nature is reclaiming the old line after hudson.
@@gaelfortier2668 its sadly is was as the line closed F
Seeing as the Two Mountains line is now becoming an LRT I really hope the MR-90s end up in Toronto seeing as GO has had plans to electrify for years. But I know that will probably never happen.
Same i hope they dont meet the same fate as 8 of the 9 canadian vickers galley cars
@@marcleslac2413 Or even perform a trade the mp40ph's (or the mp54ac's for that matter) for the alp45dp's, EXO has no more electric track, they don't need dual power locomotives.
@@wilfstor3078 agreed
@@wilfstor3078 or even better our old f-40s that LETX has
@@marcleslac2413 Why would EXO want old F40s AMT was still around when the F40s left Montreal.
Press F for the line it closed on dec 31st
Wow montreal has such little rail there is no deadheading
Sophisticated!
There is actually on the 3 lines out of lucien l'lallier but only between the yard neat Montreal-west and the terminal at lucien l'lallier.
Im just praying they preserve a single level emu set i dont wanna see them all unceremoniously scrapped
Cool
Sadly the MR-90s are now all scrapped (exept for pair 400-485 at 3:21 in the vid, as she was the lucky one as the 2 car pair was set aside to be preserved)
Sounds like the Rohr cars that WMATA had.
It's now called exo
You will be missed mr-90s and electric mode operating alps.
R.I.P Step Free Access onboard
wclifton968 still, it's much better than low platforms + low-floor trains. Compare, inconvinient entrance vs inconvinient ride. The best solution is high-floor train + matching platforms tho
+Delsin yes
Why inconvinient ride? I'm from Europe and there are a ton of Low floor trains running in my region and I've never noticed anything wrong with the ride on them.
DrDewott I rode some of them too (namely BR440 in Germany) and yeah, they are nice, but it's much more convinient to have constant (and high) floor height within the train as there are no raised surfaces to house bogies and equipment (everything fits under flat floor), making more space availiable inside, also unnecessarily low floor trains require much more complex bogey design. The only case when low floor is appropriate is double-deck trains.
I mean yes I suppose so, the UK figured that out but that's also mostly because of them having high floor platforms to begin with. With most other countries though it doesn't make sense to rebuilt the networks of their entire country to do this. With more disabiled people riding trains over here more than never before now too it makes sense to have stepfree access for people to make the journey better for all the passengers. There are tons of Alstom Coradia Lint trains going through a local train station at 20-30 minute intervals per line and people like the low floor and the easy access in and out of the train. Also in case of equipment it's stored on the roof on these trains. The Low floor standard is also over here the same as with a typical European Double Decker train coach and if a Station over here doesn't already have that it will have it soon. The Ministry of Transportation in Denmark at least where I live has plans to make every single train station and request stop in the country step free, both with the platforms and entry into the train from the platforms. Sorry if the entire message is a but cluttered btw.
I find it odd that every AMT locomotive and cab car (except for the EMUs) have two sets of horns, when they hardly ever use them!
It's rare that you hear they in the island of Montreal because of noise laws with residents nearby. But they have two horns for an interesting reason.
The two horns is because some storage yards are near residential areas, they are not required to test the horns before leaving since they have two
1 horn is a Emergency and 1 horn is a normal horn
Are you gonna be here for the rem opening
Notice the propulsion, our M7’s and our M9’s sound like that... as well as the subway
Donavan Emanuel m9 is not on service yet
Nice video
That propulsion sounds like a BART train
how much MR90's did they have i thought they end at 450 because 487 was in the video
It ends at 487
Sounds like the LA A650 Propulsion.
Yum!
Does anyone know what kind of bell those EMU's have? I think it's some kind of e-bell, but I've never heard one like that in the United States, I've only heard them on video in Canada.
EDIT: Like the one at 4:58.
Even this one on 7:50, those bells are so annoying, this is even worse
At 4:58 it’s a Transtronic Bell
@@AMT1345 At least someone gives me a solid answer lol. It may have taken three years, but thanks a ton.
No problem
Sounds like a R160b
Ken Jankowski nope
Just a little
More like an R179
Will these trains use a RB26 engine
Why is there no one?
They electrified the commuter trains in Quebec but not in ontario
moneyshot911 only 1 line
@@glaframb yea or they were hauled by boxcabs up and coasted down.
Why are the platforms so low down?
probably because its cheaper. they have low platforms in places all over eastern Europe like in places such as Italy or maybe somewhere like Poland....
And out in the midwest and south
wclifton968 and in New Jersey
Are you from NY? Because most other North American commuuter rails have low level platforms outside of LIRR and Metro North.
+New Day Transit Kid damn, even more places. here in the UK all our platforms match the standard height of the trains that we use and as far as I'm aware always has except for when the Drayton park to Moorgate line was run by LT on the northern line using 1938 stock trains so it seems that you North Americans like cheaping out on stuff like this.
What company makes the MU cars?
Never mind
Bombardier Transport
It sounds like a R160B
Yeah R110B thanks
I know the controls are easy
Arthur Graves r179
anika budd the R179 you pull down to release the air brakes and then push up
Arthur Graves a little
