Mexico City Metro Lines
Presented below the lines within the Mexico City Metro system, as of 2006, organized by number. The order in which they are listed follows the convention used by Sistema de Transporte Colectivo (the public company that manages the system) to list the stations in north-south and west-east fashion. This system however may not be used by other sources.
In addition to listing all current 195 stations, the opening date of each one of them is also provided, including their type of construction, which can fit in one of three categories: underground, surface ("street-level") and elevated (in form of an elevated viaduct). In total, 127 stations are under ground, 52 are located on street-level and 16 are elevated.

Famous quotes containing the words mexico, city and/or lines:
“I think New Mexico was the greatest experience from the outside world that I have ever had.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“I am not aware that any man has ever built on the spot which I occupy. Deliver me from a city built on the site of a more ancient city, whose materials are ruins, whose gardens cemeteries. The soil is blanched and accursed there, and before that becomes necessary the earth itself will be destroyed.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Indeed, I believe that in the future, when we shall have seized again, as we will seize if we are true to ourselves, our own fair part of commerce upon the sea, and when we shall have again our appropriate share of South American trade, that these railroads from St. Louis, touching deep harbors on the gulf, and communicating there with lines of steamships, shall touch the ports of South America and bring their tribute to you.”
—Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)
