@@abdoulm.sorofino2642 Thank you. I actually just returned from Montreal a few days ago. But there is still a few more Montreal videos I hope to release soon.
Hope your enjoyed your stay in our beautiful city. My heat always goes a flutter when I hear the "Dou-dou-dou" of the MR-73s. I grew up riding these métro cars from the late 70s, but I miss the MR-63s. Have to go to Exporail to see the one they have, which was the ones used to present the métro cars to the Commission de transport de Montréal in late 1965. 81-1501's front was too close to the wall of the Vickers factory on Notre-Dame est to get good photos with the dignitaries, so they chose to go to the other end of element 1 (81-1501 / 80-0001 / 81-1502) instead. Did you try the REM while you were here?
@@gmnewlook Yes I did try the REM but the furthest I went was Panama and there will be a video of it soon. Also I was actually born in Montreal and lived near the Green and Orange Lines. My earliest childhood memory of the Montreal Metro was either on the Green or Orange lines and seeing the MR-63s or MR-73s started my interest in trains since they were probably the first trains I saw in my life. I do miss the MR-63s and will soon miss the MR-73s in 6 or so years.
Welcome to Montreal. Nice video!

I actually thought they retired all the MR-73's. Nice to see they are still rolling.
The stm is gonna retire them in around 10 years
Mr 63 are retired
