Montreal Metro


The Montreal Metro (or what some call a subway) was inaugurated in October 1966. It initially comprised of 26 stations on three separate lines. Today, there are 68 stations on 4 lines.

I have often thought it would be a great photo opportunity to get on the Metro and travel from station to station taking pictures. But to date, that is all it is, a thought.

What I have done instead is take a few photos when I remember to as I return home from various photo shoots.

I do still plan to one day get on the Metro and stop at each station to take pictures. But until that happens, I just try to remember to take a few whenever I use it to return home from a photo shoot.
