Almost perfect timing ...

2009-08-17 07:30 Having completed the project of travelling the entirety of the Vancouver SkyTrain network the previous day, we catch a taxi from our hotel to the airport.
2009-08-17 13:00 The new SkyTrain Canada Line opens, with (inter alia) stations two blocks from our hotel, and at the airport.

So, did you manage the entire Tokyo subway?

For added fun, the Berlin S- and U-Bahn network map scares Tokyo residents.

Nope - didn't think of either of them at the time.

(So what's scary about the U-Bahn? Apart from it being eerily empty when we first encountered it, but then, the whole of Berlin right then was celebrating at the Brandenderg Gate.)

We did do the whole of the Helsinki network (well, one line, with a small fork, so rather easy) and, as you're aware, the Montreal one which is bigger than either Helsinki or Vancouver.

London yet awaits.
