"At full capacity, each Canada Line train will hold 400 passengers. They will be running trains every three minutes during peak service. The cars are much wider than SkyTrain, allowing them to accommodate luggage.
Estimated to have cost around $2 billion, the train will make Vancouver the first Canadian city with a rapid transit link between its downtown core and its airport."
