On December 10, 2012 Calgary Transit is set to open a new 8 kilometer LRT line from the City Centre to the South West.
VIP tours were offered to employees and their family members on December 1.
I was able to attend with my son and a friend of mine, who also works for Calgary Transit. On the return trip he video recorded the entire trip and this is posted to Youtube if anyone wants to watch.
The car we rode in, 2102, is a Duwag U2 built in 1988 (one of two) and of all the cars these two remind me when they accelerate out of stations of riding London Underground trains.
Anyway enjoy.
PS you can see me in the video at one point!
