Vancouver SkyTrain: Riding the Canada Line from Aberdeen to Waterfront

The last of the Seattle-Vancouver-Alaska videos, here’s a ride on the SkyTrain, the popular metro system in Vancouver. The entire system comprises of three lines, the Expo Line, Millenium Line, and Canada Line. This system is also notable for being a completely automated system, with no drivers on board and a completely unobstructed front view as a result. Here, we ride the newest line, the Canada Line, between Aberdeen and Waterfront. I do apologize if the view isn't the clearest, as the rainy weather was making a slight impact on the view and the windshield wipers were not working. Enjoy!

Nice RFW vidoe! When in Vancouver last summer, I also got a chance to ride the Canada line along with the expo lines. My favorite part of the skytrain is just being able to sit up front and look at the window.

Definitely one of the best metro systems I have been on now! Hopefully one day I can come back to try the other lines.

@davidng2336 in my opinion the trains I rode were pretty clean, run frequently pretty much all day, and it's a smooth ride

@@ZachTheRailfannerYT a very fast ride too. My only issue is because of the Canada Line only using two-car trains, it can easily get crowded during rush hour.

@davidng2336 yeah I agree. When I rode the Canada Line it was midday. I got on at Waterfront and by the 3rd stop it was packed. So hopefully on the future they can use longer trains on the line as like you said two card does not cut it during rush hour
