After calling for your questions on Montreal transit and the channel as a whole, the first-ever Q&A on theNOVABUSfan is born! But it couldn't just be any plain Q&A. Armed with your questions and your favorite stations of the Montreal Metro, I set off around the system to answer you, and show off some of the best stations across the system, as selected by you!

This video really is a thank you for your support and your engagement, especially over the last couple of months. I've begun to work at making this channel better than ever, and it wouldn't be possible without you all.

Also a big thanks to Reece (RMTransit) and Paige (Paige Loves Montreal) for their appearances in the video for their questions. They've been a big help for me to really start building up this channel, and I'm looking forward to working with them in the future.

    Nice editing! And I noticed Technet9090’s question; pretty neat. And Patrick (sky of the universe) too!

    Pro Upload! I'll be honored to answer in on next 10-10. BTW My fave Station is also McGill Urban on top as underground and will become more interesting Hub with the REM connection. Airport to Downtown Montreal in 20 mins or less is an amazing feat other Cities around The Globe are trying to accomplish!

    Ooohh well done, Ben! I hope to go on a tour to all of the stations from the book you recommended to me! :D

    For some weird reason, community posts don't appear anymore on my Youtube main page, so I missed all your recents posts. Here are some questions you could answer in the future: - We still don't know when the MR-73 will be retired. Do you think they will be replaced soon, or in the 2030s? If so, do you think they will be renovated? - Will exo/AMT ever be electrified??? What do you think? By the way, if you like the current Paris network, what do you think of the Grand Paris Express which will double the size of the network by 2030. + 200 km for a total of 420 km of metro lines, plus all the new tramway lines and expansions, and RER expansions, this is freaking huge... an additional 200 new kilometres I believe) Over 30 boring machines in total, with 21 working at the same time, never in history something like that happened before in the world. Meanwhile Montréal is discussing small expansions of the blue line and a new single pink line. Honestly, most stations on the network are beautiful. Montréal made the right decision to build beautiful stations from the start and this is why it is definitly one of the most beautiful systems in the world. Some of my favourites are Bonaventure, for its cathedral-like architecture and vaults, Fabre, for its psychedelic colours, Jean-Talon for its magnificent and useful colourful tiles and mosaics, as well as the rock "cliff".

    I saw you again at Berri UQAM on yesterday during the service disruption, I was on the Azur and saw you looking down the tunnel
  • @lawrencefan6933
    Glad to hear that Acadie is also your favorite station! The blue line has a lot of nice stations (UdeM, Parc, de Castelnau, Jean-Talon, St-Michel are really nice too) Thanks for answering my question!

    Why isn't the CAQ listening to the ARTM instead of choosing themselves the transit projects to fund?
