Réseau de trains exo - Discussion générale

Selon Sylvain Yelle, directeur général d’exo, lors de la séance publique d’hier, le potentiel d’électrification de la ligne exo12 Saint-Jérôme serait par le biais de locomotives à batteries.

Even better, one possible solution would only need overhead line equipment along the Westmount Sub and at Vaudreuil, using a hybrid battery-pantograph solution such as the version of X’Trapolis chosen by Dublin’s DART for the DART+ expansion. It has an estimated battery-only range of 120 km after 15 minutes under the OHL. Go big or go home!

@SameGuy

Converting to battery-electric MUs is so doable for a metropolis like Montreal, but there’s simply no will to do it. The Westmount sub can be electrified (and become a de facto surface metro) and overhead wires can be added at Vaudreuil, Candiac, St-Hilaire and St-Jerome. Exo management should be shown the door.

I’m also available for séances, palm readings, and balloon animals at kids’ parties.
