Saint-Michel
Lists, Among others, Saint-Michel-de-Laval, a.k.a. "Ville Saint-Michel" Is the above statement correct? as well as Saint-Michel-Nord Does or did such an area accually exist? Two articles are currently linked to it, namely Saint-Léonard—Saint-Michel and Viau. Would it really be part of Saint-Michel (Montreal), Quebec? Peter Horn 19:28, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Terminus Côte-Vertu (AMT)
For the current locations of all of the bus stops see. Ref. no. 1 (no. 2 in the article) is not up to date. The entrance on rue Gohier at the corner of boulevard Côte-Vertu has been eliminated and Q17 on boulevard Décarie at the corner of rue Macdonald has been eliminated as well.

Take a walk around Terminus Côte-Vertu and you'll see that this reference and the note are still relevant. Peter Horn 15:53, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

Response
The stops were up to date until today (the addition of 268 to the 17 stop). What I was referring to was the fact that the entrance on the corner of Cote-Vertu and Gohier has been removed.

Montreal suburban public transit
I have created articles for CRT Lanaudière (including details for MRC de L'Assomption and MRC Les Moulins) and CIT La Presqu'Île. For linking to the article, instead of using MRC de L'Assomption please use RTC de la MRC de L'Assomption (Réseau de transport collectif de la MRC de L'Assomption) and for MRC Les Moulins use MRC Les Moulins public transit(Transport en commun de la MRC Les Moulins). The current MRC red link names should only be used for the regions themselves not the public transit systems, which are now correctly titled. Other red links that I have eliminated are for Terminus Repentigny (AMT), Terminus Terrebonne (AMT) and Terminus Saint-Eustache (AMT), which now redirect to paragraphs within the articles on the bus services that use them. If you use the preferred redirect shown here, when the information is spun off to create a free standing article, only the redirect needs to be changed to still lead to the proper place. I think it would also be appropriate to create a similar paragraph for Autopark Georges Gagné within the CIT Roussillon article. -Secondarywaltz (talk) 17:48, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Monk (Montreal Metro)
What is it, is it a rail line, a subway, a bus line?PB666 yap 00:42, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

WP:LEAD
(Copy and paste fom my talk page) Peter Horn 01:33, 23 August 2008 (UTC) "The lead should be able to stand alone as a concise overview of the article. It should establish context, explain why the subject is interesting or notable, and summarize the most important points—including any notable controversies that may exist. The emphasis given to material in the lead should roughly reflect its importance to the topic according to reliable, published sources. While consideration should be given to creating interest in reading more of the article, the lead nonetheless must not 'tease' the reader by hinting at—but not explaining—important facts that will appear later in the article. The lead should contain no more than four paragraphs, should be carefully sourced as appropriate, and should be written in a clear, accessible style so as to invite a reading of the full article."PB666 yap 20:57, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

I have appended the lead to add essential information it was lacking. I should also note that the page on the metro green line is also lacking adequate context, so that article was tagged with "too short". WP:NOTDIRECTORY WP:INDISCRIMINATE. In describing a railway station I would think its function comes first, the link you claim was in the article, not. I added it however. This guy should be told to leave Montreal Metro alone, because he does not know what he is talking about. Peter Horn 01:33, 23 August 2008 (UTC) Peter Horn 01:36, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

Major changes
Re. As of this coming Monday Terminus Centre-Ville (AMT) as well as Terminus Brossard-Panama (AMT) will have to be revised. Ditto for Central Station (Montreal), Bonaventure (Montreal Metro) and perhaps even Lucien-L'Allier (Montreal Metro). Peter Horn 16:56, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Loose ends
(articles still needed)

 * CIT Haut-Saint-Laurent
 * CIT Le Richelain
 * OMIT Ville de Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu A single-city authority (OMIT)
 * OMIT Ville de Sainte-Julie A single-city authority (OMIT)

The first three of them are each linked to a lot of articles. Peter Horn 17:35, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Intermodal stations on Line 2 and on Deux montagnes line
Bois-Franc (AMT)

Bois-Franc is a commuter rail station on the AMT Deux-Montagnes Line in the Greater Montreal, Quebec, Canada area. The Bois-Franc station was intended to be an intermodal station with the Orange Line which was to be extended to Rue de Salaberry at this end. Bois-Franc is in Fare Zone 2, and currently has 754 parking spaces.

The proposed Salaberry metro station would have been too far from the current Bois-Franc train station to be of intermodal use and the proposed Bois-Franc metro station would have been too far from ether the current Bois-Franc train station or the current Du Ruisseau (AMT) train station but it would rather have been next to the former Monkland Station. Agreed??

Peter Horn 03:02, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Bois-Franc (AMT) and Du Ruisseau (AMT) had already both been revised accordingly. Peter Horn 00:58, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

Dangerous user
Hello Keller,

The following user User:Pdeitiker (User talk:Pdeitiker) should be told to stick with biology and leave transportation etc. alone. Agreed? Peter Horn 00:54, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Copy and paste from this dangerous user's talk page:
 * let's go through what a lead is. A lead describes breifly what is in the main article. The previous lead did not, as is true for most of the metro articles. The lead in this article did a green line but not even mention the rapid transit line, and yet it mentioned an art gallery and a balcone that is shut off. Do you go to a rapid transit station to pear over a shut off balcone, to stare at art, or perhaps to 'catch a subway'. I don't know who is writing these rail station pages, but a fundemental read of WP:LEAD is in store for all.PB666 yap 03:17, 23 August 2008 (UTC). When he asks "busiest with what?" He shows the shallowness of his "thinking" (Cows going thru???). He should be stopped ASAP. Peter Horn 01:08, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Did you see what User:Pdeitiker did to Line 1 Green (Montreal Metro)? Do you agree? Peter Horn 15:30, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

STL 902
Hello Keller,

Bois-Franc (AMT) STL 902 is still a "de facto" express in as much as no additional stops have been added in Laval since the STL took over. Peter Horn 20:37, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * The STL itself still displays "Express 902" on the route display panel at the front (top) of the buses on the 902 run. I verified that this morning when I saw a 902 bus go by. Peter Horn 14:40, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I know, I removed the word Express back when the AMT let this route go. I assumed that the STL wasn't going to market this as an Express as it clearly isn't

Alex@MTRL (talk) 00:01, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
 * The STL is run by twits who come to work in their own car, ditto for the AMT and the STM. The service on the 902 was never great because the AMT was unable and/or unwilling to synchronise the 902 completely with the train at Bois-Franc in both directions. And then they wonder why the park and ride at Terminus le Carrefour (AMT) is always empty. Another "brilliant" move was to close the Saint-Martin (AMT) station. Peter Horn 00:45, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

Question of syntax and/or preference
Alex,

Before I go further ahead, please give me your opinion. Which one of the two versions would you prefer or would either one be equally acceptable?
 * 1) Frontenac is a station on the Montreal Metro rapid transit system in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, operated by the Société de transport de Montréal (STM).
 * 2) Frontenac is a station on the Montreal Metro rapid transit system, operated by the Société de transport de Montréal (STM) in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. (would not appear in main texts.) Peter Horn 15:15, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I would tend to agree. When a metro station has more than two entrances it becomes messy to put all of them in the paragraph after "It is located at Blank ," So lets revise the info box(es), provided they are not protected. Peter Horn 21:35, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

Incomplete info
You (Peter Horn) recently added an incomplete and inaccurate table to Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu public transit. You should work on it in your own user sandbox that I created here: User:Peter Horn/sandbox When you have prepared it properly, only then should you move it into the article. -Secondarywaltz (talk) 22:46, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

Siding on the Blainville line an double tracking on the Repentigny-Mascouche line
I recently updated the Blainville line section with the same changes I had made a while ago but you had reversed saying that they we're false. I updated the page's track schematic saying that there is a passing siding between Blainville and Ste-Therese instead of it being single tracked but you said this was false. But that is impossible. I just gave the example on the recent changes of trains 190 and 193 which both leave Blainville and Ste-Therese heading towards each other and they must meet because of their schedule. Train 190 departs Blaiville at 17:00 and arrives at Ste-Therese at 17:17 and train 193 departs Ste-Therese at 17:10 and arrives at Blainville at 17:21. Therefore there must be a passing siding and it's impossible it is only single tracked in that section. You can verify this using a program such as Google Earth. There is a passing siding just north of Chemin de la Cote-St-Louis E.

Secondly, I'm not entirely sure who first put this up on the track schematic but the schematic shows a double track section in between Eastern Junction and the overpass of the Blainville-St-Jerome line. There is in fact two tracks here but the switch at eastern junction does not allow eastbound trains to switch onto the northern track.There is only as switch that allows westbound trains to switch onto the southern track at the point right after the Blainville-St-Jerome line overpass therefore this double track sections seems useless to the AMT and they won't be using it. You can also verify this using a program suck as Google Earth. The only solution to this is for the AMT to build and extra switch to allow eastbound trains to transfer to the northern track but there are no plans in any AMT publications about this. Should this double track section be removed from the schematic since it is unusable by the Repentigny-Maschouche Line until the AMT says otherwise?

Boo2277 (talk) 01:16, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Reply
Well I haven't been up to Ste-Therese in a while either but when I look at that siding and it's configuration, it's looks like an inconvenience because of the switches yet again. It would seem much more logical for the AMT to use the siding further north since the Sicard siding can't be accessed by inbound trains unless they enter Ste-Therese station and then back onto the siding in reverse. I'll have to up to Ste-Therese and check it out. I'm off school now so I should have time to do it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Boo2277 (talk • contribs) 21:59, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

Longueuil RTL
My French is crap, so I'm not going to get annoyed that my changes to the Longueuil RTL bus routes have been rolled back. I'm interpretting with a probably less than basic knowledge of the language. Anyway, for the sake of being concise, could you list the routes? I see that this is one of your interests, and all of the other MTL area transit providers have these on their pages.
