A similar incident happened to me today. As my train was leaving Frontenac, somebody got seriously injured and the train stopped, with half of it in the tunnel and half of it out. We needed to evacuate the train and the platform (because the injury was at Frontenac). We were stuck in the train for like 10-15 mins and in the station for about 20 mins.
Hey elton im heading to montreal in aug for a.concert now im gonna get off at the via rail.station or whatever you call it now i need to get to the olympic stadium is it possible to walk there or take a bus or subway can u plz give me some help
I'm guessing your goal is to get to the Metallica concert in August. So at the train station, you go to Bonventure Station a short walk, get onto the Orange Line, heading towards Montmorency direction. Then get off at Berri UQAM, transfer to Green line heading towards Honré-Beaugrand direction, and get off at Pie- IX which is the stop at the Olympic Stadium. With walking, waiting and ride time it should only take about 35/40 mins. Bonventure Orange Line Berri/UQAM Transfer point Pie-IX (Pie 9) Green Line Ps. you can buy tickets or a pass at most gates or there are ticket machines at all the stations too just before entry points. Many options of passes to choose from or single tickets too.
elton the first time i went to montreal was 1985.we were on the train coming back from big o to the convention centre. our train was stopped between stations for a long time. we finally found the problm. the train' tire burst and needed to be replaced. such on the metro
At least it's not the Ottawa O-Train that frequently goes down for days or even weeks at a time. I didn't know that any Montreal Metro cars still had the 3 colour dot matrix LED displays from the early 1990s. I totally miss those things, they're far more interesting visually than boring modern LCD/OLED/etc... screens. Speaking of the early 1990s, I wonder if STM sells retro Metro Maps because I totally want one of those black Metro car Metro Maps to use as a poster but I want one with the same Metro configuration there was when I was still a teenager, back when the orange line was just Cote Vertu to Henri Bourassa (and also with the "STCUM" logo)?
Oh, okay, you mentioned the O-Train yourself later in the video. I like it when it works but I don't actually need to take it very often. I pretty much only take it when I go to the East end (from Hurdman Station to St. Laurent, Cyrville, and/or Blair) since, if I want to go to downtown Ottawa, I just take the #6 bus north on Bank Street from Billings Bridge station.
