- Line 1 Yonge-University is a route on the Toronto subway in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is operated by the Toronto Transit Commission, has 38 stations and is 38.8 km (24.1 mi) in length, making it the longest line on the subway system. It opened as the "Yonge subway" in 1954 as Canada's first underground passenger rail line, and was extended multiple times between 1963 and 2017. Averaging over 736,000 riders per weekday, Line 1 is the busiest rapid transit line in Canada, and one of the busiest lines in North America.

The line is solely operated with the TTC's newer Toronto Rocket (TR) subway trains, which are based on Bombardier's Movia family of trains. ~Wikipedia

Very beautiful vedio. I miss this place
This line was recently extended northwards by a number of stations leaving the city for the first time. There is talk of extending the eastern leg of line 1 from Finch Avenue to Highway 7/Langstaff Road in Thornhill. The system resembles parts of the IND/BMT aspects of the New York Subway as its system was studied by the TTC. The cars were built in Canada by Bombardier who used the basic design and dimensions of the TTC cars for a number or MTA cars in New York.
Awesome video!
Very nice video!
TR Rocks! Along with the T1!
mark 1?
@@BurnedNoodle no
This is also like the subways in Sydney, Australia, only it's only one deck instead of 2.
NYer here. I rode Y-U route when I was in T in 2016. My sole quibble is that there were no express lines.
at least we only wait for 2 seconds before closing our doors.
I love it i will see it i love
I Like the Toronto rocket :o
go canada!!
Can you do Edmonton Light rail in Alberta or buses in Halifax, Nova Scotia?
TTC and the STM are the the best systems in North America. Say what you will, but you won't wait past 5 minutes for the Subway or Street car. Try that in the Chicago.
Nah. Vancouver is the best with automatic trains! Sadly I have to wait 5~10mins for BART train in the Bay Area
The Metropolis I've watched many you tube videos on the Skytrain. It's looks like a good system, but it looks to me like a Light rail system. Also, BART is not safe.
@@josephmuglia976 Technically it does fit the definition of "heavy rail metro", although the trains aren't that big. Also I wouldn't consider a single metro system in the US as good as Canadian/ European/ Asian systems. Although BART is not doing too bad compared to most US systems.
@@middletransport BART is fast af
112 kph.
@@middletransport Toronto has had automatic trains on line 3 the same time as vancouver, and now on some other lines. We have automatic trains too
Timosha21, you missed an opportunity for good film footage by not filming the interior of a TR train on Line 1 going north between Dupont and Eglinton West. The twists and turns are amazing to behold as the train moves through the tunnel. I enjoyed your film footage of Line 2 and the streetcar system. But dammit, you missed the bendiest part of the Toronto subway, and also did not film between Castle Frank and Broadview. Between those stations, the train goes over a highway underneath a bridge at a height of 15 storeys.
It looks a lot like the MTA
How much do you know about public transport Tim in terms of history, length, number of stations and ridership?
I have studied and worked in the transit industry and seen many first person. But I do use Wikipedia as a way to supplement information that I might not necessarily get from visiting the location :)
I would love to work in a transit industry and know everything about public transport like you.
@@transportenthusiasta1184 I would like to do the same thing.
Eu acho o metrô do rio mais bonito kakakak rsrs
Being from Montreal, I really like Toronto. But the subway is annoying in the way the metal wheels rub the metal rails. So annoying sound to me, where here the subway rolls on tires, which eliminates that annoying sound. But besides that, I really like the TTC subway. How it goes outside and all.
Honestly, I'm so used to the sounds, that I can't imagine riding in a subway without them. Whenever I do I just feel hollow inside.
Where do you get all the information about the line from?
I think his description says it's from Wikipedia.
Ottawa ontario train sucks here n fail cause alot of people waiting so long and no bus in downtown ottawa so it sucks here but toronto does right thing like train n bus in downtown
Stop that Gordon faces ouch!ooof! Jeez dude
Your subways go outside 😱
yea lol
I like it nice and underground
@@mrrobot5963 Its mostly underground, there are only a few times it goes overground, that being Scarborough RT which is an above grade medium train (however it will be demolished soon), and there's a portion of the subway that travels along the median of the highway Allen Road which is actually pretty cool. There are a few other times it goes overground bet its never longer than 500m.
Many do, including substantial parts of New York, London, Tokyo, Paris, Hong Kong and others.
Do they not run any of the older trains anymore, I liked those.
Steve The Wanderer They do, but on another line (Line 2, Bloor Danforth)
Looks too much like the NYC subway (minus the grime). The Montreal metro is sleek and quiet.
I thought the Montreal metro would be more silent but I found the cars smaller and more loud than the Toronto trains. Even the NEW trains in Montreal had no AC. Horrible on hot days. (Montreal as a city however is much nice looking however)
Montreal's fleets are more powerful and have air vents hence their sounding just as loud, although neither screeching on the mildest of bends nor squealing when halting.
The new train verry different of the other metros in Montreal are clean and have Fans
I personally hate rubber tired metros, but to each his own.
What is it about pneumatic traction that you detest?
Tokyo metro ,please!!
