untitled edit

There is an error in the image Image:UBahnLinienbandRioDeJaneiro.png: 584A, 422A, and 406A bus lines connections do not run from Cinelândia station, but from Largo do Machado station. It must be corrected.--Pedro Aguiar 23:36, 22 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Please, ask to the image creator to correct it. Until that, I will remove the image. Regards, Carioca 00:52, 23 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Expansion lines edit

Here is a cool image (cool as in informative -- but not in quality) about the expansion of Rio's underground. --Pinnecco 22:04, 28 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

This is just what I wanted to see. It should be in the main text. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.21.53.233 (talk) 12:08, 22 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Outdated edit

This article is heavily outdated. It talks about things to come in 2007 or 2009. Now it is 2011. I noticed some errors already (RFID Tickets are introduced, no magnetic strip) but I have too little facts to start messing around with it confidentially.

  1. ^ Estácio station interchange to Line 2 only on weekends and holidays.
  2. ^ Cidade Nova station closed on weekends and holidays.

I have a schematic of the system (over there ->). Does anyone think this would be useful? I realise we don't what too many maps on the page! Bagunceiro (talk) 11:57, 8 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, I support the inclusion of this schematic. It looks great. --Carioca (talk) 19:03, 8 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

System Length value Is Incorrect edit

For the system length for the Rio de Janeiro Metro, someone has just taken the Line 1 (16.0 km) and Line 2 (30.2 km) route lengths and added them together. The problem with this is that Route 1 and Route 2 share a stretch of line of 10 stations, so you can't just add the two line lengths together, as you'd be "double-counting" a fair amount of the route.

So does anyone know what the true route length (i.e. the one-way track-length) of this system really is? I can't seem to find it anywhere on the Rio de Janeiro Metro's website. UrbanRail.Net claims a system length of 35 km,[1] which seems to be a more plausible figure to me than 46.2 km. So can anyone confirm the 35 km figure?...

Follow-up: This reference[2] from the Metrô Rio website seems to peg the length at 41km. I will probably go with that for the route length figure. --IJBall (talk) 05:32, 18 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

  Done Used the second reference listed above to revise the route length stat at the main article; also added some clarification sentences to the intro paragraph to make clear where this figure comes from. I also added a bunch of other referencing for most of the other stats too. --IJBall (talk) 18:57, 18 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Uruguai Station edit

With the completion of Uruguai station in March 2014, Line 1 now goes from Ipanema/General Osório to Uruguai Station (not to be confused with Uruguaiana Station, an older station in the same line).
