Le tramway de Lille - Roubaix - Tourcoing: Trams in Lille, France 2016

[@HenrysAdventures]

Great video! I've subscribed! I'd love to visit Lille and ride its tramways one day.

[@davidwood4892]

Great video thanks for sharing.

it sounds strange but cool. seems like a gearbox!

[@Luke_Starkenburg]

Narrow gauge tram system in France? Isn't the tram in Paris standard gauge? Same in Brussels, right? I like the look of the train and track. I'm pretty sure the trains have a higher capacity than the Lille Metro, which is kind of funny, although I'm sure the frequency is less than the metro.

[@gandalf7292]

The Paris tram is standard gauge like every else cities in France expect of Saint-Etienne and Lille who are in narrow gauge

[@QuarioQuario54321]

Lille is one of only 3 legacy systems

nice train video

Τα οχήματα πρέπει να είναι και αυτά άνευ οδηγού. Το πλάτος της γραμμής είναι μάλλον ένα μέτρο (1m) και αυτό επίσης κρίνεται θετικό από το γεγονός ότι το πλάτος ζώνης των γραμμών είναι μικρότερο. Επικροτώ το γεγονός ότι το μεγαλύτερο μέρος της γραμμής είναι στρωμένο με σιδηροδρομικές σιδηροτροχιές από αυτές που χρησιμοποιούνται στο μετρό, εξασφαλίζοντας μικρότερες ανοχές και υψηλότερες ταχύτητες.

Pourquoi il y a un arrêt qui s'appelle "3 Suisses"?

[@CD-jr1zi]

Danmetro 98RB parce qu’il y a ou avait un siège social des 3suisses

[@Dbiza]

Danmetro 98RB je me disais la même chose …

[@imaginox9]

We can notice that the propulsion is the same as in NYC's R110A and Toronto's T1 !

[@QuarioQuario54321]

imaginox9 It sounds pretty different

[@pearlyhumbucker9065]

Thats clearly far fetched..... The only conclusion one can draw here: They all use some frequency dependend control mechanisms. But that is standard today for every electric train......

[@wilfstor3078]

The system was made by the American company Westinghouse. It was also used in Taipei on the C301, in LA on the P2000 type, in Seattle on (believe it or not) the Breda Duo-Busses and in Dallas on the DART. However I like it best on the T1 because local bias.

@@QuarioQuario54321 No it's the same, I've already been on these trams

[@imaginox9]

@@wilfstor3078 Wasn't it made by Adtranz ?

Il va tout doucement o.0 .

[@KevinSmith-gc7ov]

They appear to be driverless... there not are they?

[@timosha21]

unlike conventional trams, they have hid the driver to the very left (if you are looking straight at the tram).

I've been offered a job in Toucoing. Where would I want to live if I don't have a car? In Tourcoing, Roubaix or Lille? I've read Roubaix and Toucoing are dangerous. Which is worse? Lastly, how long does this tram ride take from central Lille to Tourcoing? Thanks

[@danmetro98rb]

Christopher Peppiatt Actually, there is also the metro going to Roubaix and Tourcoing, which is even faster. So if you want, you can live in Lille. But sorry, I would not be capable to say how long the trip exactly takes by tram. With the metro, it was around 20 minutes from Lille city centre if I'm not mistaken.

[@Tryphon-mb5jc]

Tourcoing isn't really dangerous, I mean that depends where you live. Roubaix on the other hand is an other world.

[@PpAirO5]

Omg 😨 I am planning to travel to Lille, but is it safe ? What do i have to look out for ? (Thiefs, robbers, gangs, tricksters/scam artist, murders, violence ?)

[@Dbiza]

@@PpAirO5 is it not safe :(

iHate Lille .

[@danmetro98rb]

Ces trams sont si courts... Ca crée pas des problèmes de surcharge aux heures de pointe?

[@CD-jr1zi]

Danmetro 98RB non pas spécialement mais le métro pose problème

[@anamariankula4410]

T'choupi supermarché ado

[@thelearc0]

You're lucky that no one stole your camera in Roubaix x')

[@QuarioQuario54321]

Huh?

[@Robot2001MC]

Weird nose, i like the sound tho

[@PpAirO5]

I guess you mean noise 🔊 not nose 👃 😅

[@strassenbahnfilmguy9306]

The trams are too boxy

[@timosha21]

+StrassenbahnFilmGuy You know its funny. These are the newer ones they are not to bad looking . The old ones in my opinion are quite ugly; however i did not see one at all (i seen the photos on the internet though!)
