Yellow Line (Montreal Metro)
The Yellow Line (French: Ligne jaune), also known as Line 4 (French: Ligne 4), is one of the metro's four routes operating in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. It was popular when it opened for service because it connected Montreal's city centre with the Expo 67 exhibition and La Ronde on Île-Sainte-Hélène. Line 4 has three stations, and travels under the St. Lawrence River between the island of Montreal and Longueuil. Line 4 was part of the initial network of the metro, and numbered in conjunction with Line 3, a route that was later cancelled. It is also the first metro line to leave the island. All three stations on the line have been renamed since their opening.

“Have you not a moist eye, a dry hand, a yellow cheek, a white
beard, a decreasing leg, an increasing belly? Is not your
voice broken, your wind short, your chin double, your wit
single, and every part about you blasted with antiquity? and
will you yet call yourself young?”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“In order to get to East Russet you take the Vermont Central as far as Twitchell’s Falls and change there for Torpid River Junction, where a spur line takes you right into Gormley. At Gormley you are met by a buckboard which takes you back to Torpid River Junction again.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
