Welp too bad

its busfanning. thats the point.

Surface route is capped at 60km/h, and underground at 80..

The REM is not apart of the STM, it's run by the ARTM

i think they might have bought the old models from the TTC

so does the vancouver sky train mark 1 (RIP SRT btw)

does not every metro do that ?

REM is not run by the STM. They are two separate companies.

wait its only 2 carts????

It was on the first day of service so lots of people were riding it to try it out.

@@jericsheng-gz7cy It's 4 cars long

@@KangaRueProductions ok thx :)

⁠​⁠@@jericsheng-gz7cyI get what u meant by 2 cars. But however in total it’s 4 cars (2 trains formed of 2 cars coupled up together)

Maybe the 2008 hybrids?I guess so

I think there replacing the 3rd gen Nova artics

Fun fact about xde60: 9402 was delivered yesterday.

@@Meloncat147 dude finally

@@Meloncat147 Almost all of the xd40 and 2023 nova hybrid is been delived lol

@@unexplainable-complexity You make a good point. Perhaps they could soften the sound? It could still be a beep but would be played right before the train's more melodic chime, and would also use deeper tones that are not irritating but still convey the same message. There are certainly many models of this around the world. When I was in Japan, the platform barriers (not doors, they use glass sliding barriers that are about half the height) complement the sound of the train chime. It's definitely possible and there are many precedents for this.

@@unexplainable-complexity You're right. I also thought of the possibility of the PSDs not having any flexibility with the chime. I noticed that this is a pattern around the world with many rapid transit systems that use PSD. When that is the case, my biggest pet peeves are when the PSD chime is louder than the train's chime and when both the PSD and the train use irritating beeps that are misaligned from each other. I gotta say that I am such a nerd when it comes to this stuff. Ever since I was a kid, I tried to come up with the best audio and visual experiences for train systems, from ride smoothness to acceleration, signage systems to chimes & automated audio alerts, the station's architecture to the train's interior design; everything. This extends beyond transportation into just about everything, so that's why I want to become an urban planner. For some reason, it's so satisfying for me to ride the Montreal Metro's Azur trains, with the calming and iconic chime that bounces off the walls of cavernous stations, the refreshingly fast and elegant acceleration/deceleration (the opposite of the Toronto subway in that matter), the very smooth and quiet ride, and the way the doors are lit up with green + red + white with soft transitions in between each colour. There's something about riding 250 km/h across Italy on their extra-quiet high speed trains as you pass spontaneous cliffs embellished with charming villages perched atop them; landscapes that I could compare to the Garden of Eden. There's something about riding the Shinkansen with a healthy dose of forward-drive motion that you can feel in the back of your seat, and hearing a anime/Pokemon-sounding chime uniquely composed for every single station. I just love this kind of stuff and it warms my heart when a perfect projects comes along every once in a while.

@@unexplainable-complexity Thank you! I also love dreaming about UI. Good luck to you, too!

The platform screen door chime is notorious in new Istanbul metro lines
