hey everyone join us as we take the metro to phoenix let's go
left and right we'll just follow the green man
taking the metro to phoenix uh i'm quatre bornes single-use ticket single-use ticket
uh single-use ticket phoenix phoenix two two seventy rupees confirm uh hard
oh there's a nice little thing over here you take a single ticket wow
we're off
i'm gonna try get some filming from the front
don't lean on the door guys
oh man it's like whizzing past all the traffic later on i'm gonna have to drive through that
tell them to be careful
so we can get a bit of Riki edge on this footage
oh and there's another station we're arriving at another station
this is St Jean i thought that would be at the church well this is saint Jean road oh of course
it goes all the way to the church yeah and yes the metro runs right through the middle
of what used to be the main streets of Quatre Bornes yeah so we only got one lane on
each side instead of two now that's okay because we've got the metro instead oh new people coming
next station is at 14:43 it says that means it must be like quarter to watch you ma call it now so
that's saint jeans station we're good he checked to make sure everyone's on board now he's pushing
his buttons but he's got a big red button that probably stops it and we're off those look kind of
cool with the shades on maybe he'll turn around really cool uh uniforms they're really smart
maybe we can get them to have a look at us in a second where are we going next
Trianon okay oh wow you can see the mcb building up ahead we'll probably see that in a
oh and minute we've got stabilizers on it's actually quite a smooth drive it is but these
things accelerate like crazy they are do you think we have to stop because the T is red up ahead
maybe oh no it's be careful
oh this bridge this bridge doesn't look so good up ahead it looks like it's incomplete
oh that is quite scary and that's the mcb building over there oh man
it is pretty cool oh and the mountains have mist on them we can see that
while you guys can't because we're turning around
a little bit of reflection there oh and this is LA city up ahead
with the eggs do jaja for the croatian viewers
well this is Trianon station do you think you can get to the mall from here
i'm sure that'd be pretty cool that's why we investigated to see yeah
oh we're not going to pull over here are we we're going all the way to phoenix
yeah we're not going to stop but i assume we're going to pick up people yeah oh yes it looks like
there's a thing that goes under yes you can go under Riki will show you out the side window
okay we didn't see it but we'll see it on the way back or not
phoenix 14;42
and we stopped swinging around lot of people off to do their shopping
at the mall LA city just across there
and we're back on
there's another tram coming towards us
metro metro we're going to call them metro's not trams yes metros metros here he comes
he's on his way to port louis victoria station bye guys enjoy good shopping there
oh yeah there's a little tiring holding your hand like this it when Riki does her drives
oh he's got a little bit of there's a little bit of rain because we're not heading towards Curepipe
yep so it is going to rain a lot nice he's got the windscreen wipers on cleared it up for us thanks
oh there's a walkway here
but no station
well it's starting to rain a bit more that you guys can still see out there
oh man whizzing past the track
it is this is the only way to travel right we need one to Grand Baie we do
i changed hands but i'm holding on
we can actually make it squirt liquid to clean it for us
this is quite a long way without a stop yeah
is this the end of the line for us
i think this is the end of the line everyone that was incredibly quick from phoenix from Quatre Bornes
to phoenix like unbelievable it wasn't like remember we stuck in that traffic for 20 minutes
yeah i'm doing that now but we have to change lanes oh we're changing lanes
oh that's so interesting down there
attention all passengers this is the last station for this service with all your belongings
thank you for travelling with metro express you're welcome that was a lot of fun
awesome no mind to the gap no mind the gap oh we so feel like we're not in england
we're mauritius what would they say mauritius will mind the gap i don't know step carefully
and here we are end of the line for now but don't worry guys when it goes all
the way to Curepipe we will be there for you at some point
but now we're going to go back join us really level you don't have to mind the gap at all
no all the same level so here you can see the whole line
all the way
and we just did the Quatre Bornes through to phoenix these ones coming soon
stand in front of it i'll just get a picture of you oh it's the same guy that's they really are
smart that's so cool oh man it actually feels like you're in another country because the tram
went so fast we came all the way down here but it's time to go again we'll see you on the inside
are we on the other side now i can hold on to this one and on to the other one okay so um nobody
actually checks your tickets or anything when you come on but i assume that they have inspectors i
did see a lady yes yes but from time to time and each time they get to the end of the the
line that's why we waited a bit exploring phoenix station
they actually uh like disinfect the whole train really you can smell it
guy came in and disinfected and cleaned everything yeah i can actually smell it
i'm going to zoom in just a little bit guys because i don't know if you can see that
but this train has done 50 000 kilometers already
oh wow i was very nice of him he told us that he's about to go and here we go
and we're off you can actually see we're doing two three four kilometers five
kilometers or six ten ten twelve kilometers an hour they have a lot of acceleration
yeah this thing because they're electric
let's see what the fastest is we can go we're almost at 30 we're 30
31 hopefully there's no speed limit and he's not going to get in trouble for going too fast
there we are 40 kilometers an hour
oh man and the traffic on the side of the road it's still raining a bit guys but
we got the traffic on the side of the road uh yeah we're going as fast as that oh we accelerate
oh 70 kilometers an hour we're going bus speeds here guys that is so awesome
they're not quite good in speed but anyway a nice steady 68 69 keeping it nice and stable
oh there are we back back to the the egg buildings there's a walkway here but the
train doesn't stop the metro doesn't stop here maybe it's for other people
yeah let's see because there's definitely an underground walkway up ahead at the Trianon yeah
look at all these flyovers and yeah you guys probably don't recognize phoenix
to Quatre Bornes and from this view no not at all you have another train up ahead
that guy's on his way to phoenix well i guess our train now says port louis
pulling it nice and slowly
oh and that over there with that green thing is the way
to go to LA city you can just go down there
oh someone's in trouble they're checking his pass
seems like he's okay we can be on our way again
i love the acceleration it really is it's so
fast if you ever look at it it's like we are suddenly at 30 kilometers an hour just like
bang like that you know oh man if cars could do that we'll crash a lot more
this one feels incomplete a bit at the moment but maybe
they don't have to have the gravel on on bridges
oh he actually has his own speed traps not traps but
places where he has to go 40 kilometers an hour or less
we even see the sea just out there in the distance oh wow
there's a St Jean church
and coming down the ramp nice and slow speed zone i will change hands
and we're coming up towards i suppose a lot of people cross up here because they used to
so he's got to be a little bit more careful
of pedestrians here but it is a long straight road all the way to Quatre Bornes central
I wonder how much it is to go from Saint Jean to Quatre Bornes central
yeah i mean it's a long road this it is i'm gonna put the the station another one
closer to the church as well because it's a long walk i suppose you take the buses yeah
remember guys for St Jean to the other side
of the road to get your tickets here you can't get them here at the station
and we're back on
and we're off
oh i suppose that thing on his hand there's the accelerator
Quatre Bornes central it's our stop
thank you oh so many buses on the side why didn't people just take the metro
oh here comes our metro buddy
105 to phoenix
extremely close
around we go
and here we are this is our stop well where we started in the beginning
so this is the new piece of the line that just opened up amazing
loads of people on their way to port Louis
oh man what a fantastic way to go to phoenix
and we're here
there we go made it
thank you so much he's cool yeah he's awesome
i'm going to try it
it's a little bit windy
metro oh the best water in the world
metro station at Quatre Bornes has the ticketing places and water and bins and things and it's
sort of shielded from the rain no toilets here though no toilets not that i could see
and the metro staff are amazingly helpful and super cool keeping everyone safe bye-bye
metro express
oh wow taking the metro is so much fun and it's so much easier than
actually walking or taking a car we know everyone thanks for watching see you again next time
