 The Risks Digest Volume 19: Issue 55
Vancouver, despite being in Canada, is not snowed in for six months of the year.
So, while parts of Maine, and New York, much of eastern Ontario, and almost all of Quebec are covered by a sheet of ice, yesterday (Tuesday, January 13) Vancouver had its own "Storm of the Century": a whopping 10 cm (0.026 fathoms, for the metrically challenged) of snow.
Skytrain is completely automated: there are no drivers on the trains, and usually no attendants on the platforms.

 Cyburbia Forums - Vancouver's Millennium SkyTrain Line
SkyTrain is an automated and completely grade-separated system with a capacity of roughly 25000 people per hour per direction.
Being from Vancouver, the skytrain line is great - but we need the connection to the airport and richmond to truly make this system a regional system.
SkyTrain is an obvoius choice, although I've heard Hitachi also produces elevated systems similar to Bombardier's SkyTrain.

can't take off for the day to favourite places in Greater Vancouver when I suddenly have an urge to go: like Stanley Park or White Rock or a few of our great provincial parks.
Of course it should be noted that 54:40 is a Vancouver band!
(the flip-sides: a) because it's underground you don't have the nice view you get with Skytrain; b) it's very easy to jump in front of trains and apparently this happens frequently.

 Public Consultation Appendix 2 - Five
With regard to station locations, there was strong opposition to the idea of a station at Bell, and many people stated that it was redundant, given the proximity of the Lougheed Mall station.
While this open house was to discuss station location/alignment options for the Lougheed Mall, most of the participants came with concerns regarding the alignment approach from the west along the Lougheed Highway to the Lougheed Mall and the proposed Bell Avenue station.
Someone wanted to know the ridership criteria being used to plan station locations and routes, and more information on the economics of the project as to coverage of both capital and operating costs.
