Photos of #trafficlights and the #skytrain in #newwestminster today. Was in the car in between destinations so I didn’t get to take any #photos while outside, but this was the best I got from the car. #lowermainland #ShotoniPhone

Question for #SkyTrain nerds: why do the LIM trains sound like they "gear up" as they're pulling out of stations? I would expect an electric motor to be continuous, especially in this configuration!

Mi oficina está en la misma cuadra que el estadio de fútbol (ambos tipos de fútbol)... También es un lugar para conciertos, así que muchas veces al salir de la oficina puedo ver llegar a los fans... o durante el día escuchar a los artistas ensayando... La estación #Skytrain Stadium está cerca.

Este estadio tendrá partidos de #FIFA2026... si la humanidad puede tener un evento internacional.

This stadium will have #FIFA2026 games.. if we humankind can have an international event. #NightStadium #Cityscape #UrbanLights #ModernArchitecture #SubwayStation #PublicTransport #CityLife #UrbanScene #TrainPlatform

The other bridge.
This bridge over the #FraserRiver is for the #Skytrain, the #Metro, the #Subway, the #Tube of metro #Vancouver
#Surrey is connected to #NewWestminster via transit via this bridge. (Surrey should have been New Surrey?, or even better QayQayt as the indigenous peoples called it.)

From this angle, you can see at least four of the SkyTrain's five rails. Not seen here: this is multiple storeys under street level, and looks as if it is underground most of the time, but this is at the true ground level.

Yesterday, getting off the #metro / #skytrain in downtown #Vancouver a couple of workers, I assume, fixing a lamppost... I liked the perspective formed by the movable platform... and why not.. the blue sky so uncommon in the #westcoast in December

#Vancouver extending its #SkyTrain undergroundly .. be careful of how you name your #metro system. Currently bus 99 is an express bus line, with few and apart stops that will be replaced by the train…

the photo shows the tunnel for the expansion of the skytrain from the door of the 99 bus on a rainy day

From the archives: Interurban Tram 74 BCER and others awaiting scrapping, 1953.

A shame that the Metro Vancouver Interurban Tram system was completely scrapped in the fifties to make room for roads. Decades later the Skytrain system rebuilt some of these routes but at a much higher price point because of the elevated tracks.

Vancouver's #metro / #subway / #SkyTrain is driverless, automatic... that allows videos like this one ⬇️ to be filmed, since there's a frontal window with no drivers cabin on it...

Finally coming down from the intense yet incredible weekend that was my 1st RSVP.
Sat: rode from Seattle to Bellingham
Sun: rode from Bellingham across Canadian border to Vancouver
Mon: biked to every station on SkyTrain’s Expo Line
Tue: biked around Vancouver before taking Amtrak home

The SkyTrain (subway/metro/tube in Metro Vancouver) exit closer to my house.
An exit to a street, with some 10~15 degrees uphill... the stairs at the left end of the exit have 9 steps.. then 7.. then 5 then 4 then 3.. then nothing..
a car in the middle of the photo gives in idea of how steep it is..

The Raving Gamer, #Langley's beloved board game bistro, has closed, citing rising costs and #SkyTrain construction. A heartfelt farewell to a local gem.

For those in the US, what are you playing these next couple of days?

As it’s just a regular Thursday in Canada, I’ll be playin some #wizardryvariantsdaphne and #Balatro on the #SkyTrain

Oh and happy thanksgiving for those who celebrate.

blue sky days

#ScienceWorld, a children's science museum... a legacy of the 1986 World Expo... same as the first line of the metro .. the #SkyTrain expo line in #Vancouver

listening to the last 6 hours of the #audibook while #commuting by #metro / #skytrain to the office

The #SkyTrain in the Greater Vancouver Area crosses in two points the #FraserRiver, the cross between #NewWestminster and #Surrey is one of the longest transit bridges in the world

#Canad #BrisitshColumbia #Metro #Transit

Yikes - #Toronto #TTC SRT had a car decouple and #derail near Ellesmere station

(This is the same technology as the Mark 1 #Vancouver #SkyTrain cars, and is closing in November for a 7-10 year subway expansion project)

for logistical reasons, on Wednesdays i go back home at noon, it's nice to ride de #metro / #subway / #SkyTrain during non-rush-hours

#Vancover is an urban area where high-rise buildings appear close to the stations.. a proof of "build them, and they will come" #transit
