  • A 4K Toronto TTC subway station tour, and ride from St Clair West Station to Eglinton West Station (soon to be Cedarvale Station in 2020). This video starts out at the intersection of Bathurst St and St Clair Ave as a streetcar passes by. I then head down into St Clair West Station checking out the bus and streetcar platform. From there it's down to the line 1 northbound subway platform where I board the train to Eglinton West Station. At Eglinton I leave and make my way over to the 32 bus on Eglinton Avenue. Masks or cloth face covers are mandatory on the TTC due to the Coronavirus / Covid-19 pandemic. Recorded on Thursday, July 30, 2020 at 5:57 pm.
    0:01 - Intersection of Bathurst and St Clair West
    3:41 - Entering St Clair West Station (south entrance)
    5:40 - Bus & Streetcar Platform
    11:43 - Heath Street entrance (inside)
    13:30 - Boarding the northbound line 1 train
    17:59 - Arriving at Eglinton West Station
    22:26 - Exiting the station
    25:55 - Arriving at the temporary bus stop & boarding the 32 bus (eastbound)
    Recorded with a DJI Osmo Pocket in 4K at 60 FPS.

They are more neighborhood types of areas rather than mini Downtowns. Unfortunately, NYC has gone to crap. Therefore, Toronto is now the premier big city in North America.

    Excellent video. I love the multimodal tours of the subway stations. I'm amazed how many pay phones still exist in the stations. They are long gone in most US stations that I encounter.

    • @zeighy
      @zeighy 4 года назад +1

      To my understanding, the payphones are still kept there for "just in case" purposes. I haven't really seen anyone use them, but they are functional phones that will connect you to 911, do call collect, and access operator services. It's usually in case your mobile phone dies, at least you can use something to call. But, I've seen most people just quickly plugin their phones with their charger on the outlets instead.... To the dismay of the TTC, since they didn't want people plugging in to those outlets. As long as you don't loiter around, they don't care much.

    • @JohnnyStrides
      @JohnnyStrides  4 года назад

      I believe as zeighy pointed out they're really just there for emergency backup? Although I don't know why we need so many of them.

    Lovely video.... The train is similar to that of the Dubai metro here, though different in some designs and colors.. Also the inside bus looks like the buses here in Dubai.... Only that the first 3 or 4 sets of sits in the front are for women & children... While the rest sits behind are for men and also women and families.
    Like the views. Thanks Johnny!

How many people the train can hold? I find they are pretty long 🤔 thanks for sharing and continue showing these wonderful vlogs 🥰

      1) As long as you are within Toronto yes they are! As for capacity, I'm not sure but it's a lot of people on both (providing there's no pandemic). You have a 2 hour transfer window once you're on to transfer from one to the other without paying an extra fare :)

    I remember old days when we were having licensure review ,we used ride on a train a lot. It's kinda annoying cause people will keep on pushing you to the center even if it doesn't have space anymore. Hope it's not like that there😩
