Once the counter opened, we were instructed to line up based on seat types: business or coach. Going through the custom was quick and easy. Though they don't stamp anymore, the agent was very nice to stamp it for us since it was my daughter first time out of the country and re-entry. The train ride will last for 4 hrs and 25 mins. We got food from Ekki Sushi so we could eat dinner on the train.

The platforms are definitely on the smaller side too. Great for connecting with R4 (41st Avenue), as well as getting to the airport.

I mean heading to…read moredowntown you would have to go downstairs and once you are downstairs you would have to go back upstairs to the other side. I mean that is a lot of walking. The station is underground and this is a plus. I like the fact that Oakridge mall is just upstairs which means that this station is located in a good location. Very convenient.

It is an underground station with stairs, escalator and lift from the street to the platform and to the train platform. It is an island platform with rails on both sides.

Really busy SkyTrain station at the intersection of Commercial and E Broadway…read more Even though they've done quite a few improvements over the years including the addition of a 3rd platform, this thing still gets seriously packed during rush hour, when the hordes all pile in trying to get into or out of downtown. I still get confused here and there trying deal with the Expo line. Be sure to follow the signage. One peculiar thing I've noticed is that people will zip through the train (in one side and out the other side) to skip to an adjacent platform. Haven't figured out what they're trying to do just yet. Guess I shouldn't really be complaining. Busy is good.

I wouldn't have know there was even actually a business page set up for this station unless I did a…read moresearch on my Yelp app to check-in (await the check-in whores now!) but I review anything and everything and this is one of the busiest stations on the old Skytrain line. Finally had a chance to see what they are planning to implement moving forward on the new fare 'gate' system, and I will hold judgement till they are fully implemented, as I see a log jam that will be happening during peak hours. This station is a corridor, as it has an intersecting station (Commercial) where the Millenium line comes in. Also in the busy weekday mornings people line up on Broadway to catch the B-Line to UBC. The amount of people that come through here is (for Vancouver standards) a lot! This area was definitely a lot darker back in the day, with people begging for money around the station, and the normal small drug deal around the corner, with the addition of the Millenium line brought some new businesses that cleaned up this place. The station does look it's age on the old Broadway side but it's an important station for Transit. During the peak hours just remember your lining up, whether it's for the next train, or the next bus, just remember to try to be couteous to others, and let others off first before you go charging up onto your transit option!

One of the original Expo line stations, located at, you guessed it, Nanaimo Street (and 24th…read moreAvenue). This station is pretty unchanged since it was first built, so it has the "futuristic" 1980s look. 2 platforms, 2 train directions. No escalators, but there are elevators somewhere I assume. Not sure what else to say. Station gets the job done.

(Northeast corner)…read more Yeah, I live close to here and would not worry about pulling up in the alley to wait for someone. The transit police car is usually parked there, but I never see them around. The station still has some shiny new parts (pic included). There appears to HAVE been a Jugo juice in there. Why it was not successful is beyond me, considering the amount of Langara College student traffic there is. I did see a food truck outside the other day, but IDK if it is going to stay. So this station is pretty boring, but try not to be around when school starts or ends otherwise you end up waiting in a looooong line for the #49 bus. Fair warning!

More stairs than normal but a workout…read more An easy pickup/drop off as long as the bus isn't there. So the back alley is good and a temporary loading zone on Cambie there too. great for the students here no doubt. used to see a food truck here.

This is an elevated station that is located above street level so you will need to take an escalator or elevator to get to the platform. If you are heading to Chinatown, this stop may be closer for you than the following stop, Stadium-Chinatown. That stop seems farther away to Chinatown as it is closer to where the T&T Supermarket is. If you have just arrived into town at Pacific Central Station, I would suggest taking a train here if you are heading into downtown Vancouver. There are a few buses on the street here, but if you are not familiar with the area, the train is the easiest way to go.
