Satz von vier Marken mit Metros in Toronto, Montreal, Calgary und
Vancouver
Canada
The four stamps are being issued an the 5Oth anniversary of Canada‘s
first subway, which opened in Toronto in 1954. They portray in correct
detail the trains, station names and logos of rapid transit Systems in
four Canadian cities: Toronto, Montreal, Calgary and Vancouver.
The Toronto Transit Commission‘s subway first opened with only its
Yonge Street Line; the parallel University Avenue Line was completed
in 1963, and the Bloor-Danforth line in 1966. Montreal‘s Metro
opened in 1966 as Canada‘s second subway System with lines
running throughout the island, even under the St. Lawrence River.
Light rail is a low-cost electrical transit system, with small cars
that can operate either at grade in mixed traffic or on a separate
right-of-way. Ca!gary opened its Light Rail Transit (LRT) System in
1981 with track both below and at grade. Vancouver's Skytrain opened
for EXPO 86 on an entirely segregated right-of-way through the city,
much of it elevated.
As Canadian cities continue to grow ard the need for public
transportation increases, these speedy commuter trains may well set us
on the fast track to the future. (From "Details" of
Canada Post Vol. XVIII No.1)
