*Judging from the sound produced
The Canada Line is a SkyTrain line operated by ProTransBC, a subsidiary of InTransitBC, a contractor under TransLink in Metro Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
The Canada Line connects Waterfront Station in Vancouver with Vancouver International Airport and Richmond. The line was built through a Public-Private Partnership (P3) model. SNC-Lavalin built the line and its subsidiary, ProTransBC, operates the system under contract under 2044. The line and rolling stock are owned by TransLink.
Unlike other SkyTrain lines, the Canada Line does not run on linear induction but on conventional motors.
Most of the line is underground, with some sections at grade and elevated. The line has two bridges. From Waterfront to Olympic Village, the line travels in a tunnel built with a tunnel boring machine. From Olympic Village to north of Marine Drive, the line travels in a cut-and-cover tunnel. Elevated sections are from Marine Drive to Richmond-Brighouse and directly east of Templeton and the approach to YVR-Airport is also elevated. Most of the line on Sea Island is at grade to compensate for future airport taxiway expansion.
To save costs, YVR–Airport and Richmond–Brighouse run single track.
