[@calligraphy4851]

Sweet. Thanks for the tour. SUGGESTION: see if you can get an interview with our mayor. WHY? He was very instrumental in making the downtown to Millwoods LRT line a reality. AND: Our mayor -an immigrant- went from bus driver to city councillor to federal MP to mayor. Uhraine, even if you can't get an interview with the mayor, let his career inspire😊 Great video

Congrats Edmonton on the opening of the long awaited valley line. I wonder how the new trains will perform in our harsh winter climate.

[@Uhraine-Miller]

That will be interesting. Let’s see!

[@CANMONQUE]

My good! The downtown so empty. Hopefully the LRT will help bringing peoples downtown because it’s crazy dead. Looks like a ghost town.

[@James-vj5hz]

Needs more housing downtown.

[@darrellfrancis3863]

[@jessebrook1688]

We're too cheap for that here. It was discussed, but tunnelling and sharp curves won at slightly less than half the cost.

I into think all lrt line should run above or below the ground and then all station and platform should be a in a greenhouse and gate between platform and train or lobby area with warm area give homeless people to sleep. And all let station should connect the second floor or third floor of mall like Aberdeen station

[@Uhraine-Miller]

That would be amazing! Especially with the connections of malls.

[@snakeoids1]

It’s too damn slow and the seats are uncomfortable because they’re not contoured Why can’t they build anything right nowadays?

[@kdleslie1973]

Honestly it really isn't a train, or light rail. Outside of Edmonton, most of the world would call it a Tram.

[@Uhraine-Miller]

Interesting. You’re right man. Thank you.

[@JB0i]

We call these LRVs (Light Rail Vehicles) in North America in general. The word tram is actually a bit unfamiliar to us.

[@slicedbeats]

It's called Deadmonton for a reason; and it's a car centric city. People drive rather than take public transit. And it's a city of over a million 😅

[@larry4674]

Taken on a Sunday.

[@jessebrook1688]

The new line isn't complete yet. The Valley Line is being built in two stages. This first stage goes to the ski hill and Muttart, Bonnie Doon Mall, and Mill Woods Mall. Most of these are smaller, quieter destinations than the train that it intersects with at Churchill Station goes to. Bonnie Doon serves as a bus hub mainly going to the university via bus and Sherwood Park by express bus. The advantage to riding on a smooth train versus a bus going over Edmonton's roads will become apparent over time. I don't foresee usage picking up for a year or two, but it goes to enough useful places to make a difference. Once completed in about 4 years (probably 7), the new construction on Edmonton's west side and Edmonton's major tourist destination of West Edmonton Mall will be linked into the network as well, making a more convenient trip downtown from the West end. Also, in about 20-25 years, the main line will link to Edmonton's airport, not just via a bus, as it does now.
