I do not like Dopelmayr installations. The APM at Pearson Airport(Toronto) is a bumpy ride.

Comfort quality? Could you explain us? Thank'you

There's an on-going discussion about Toronto-Pearson's cable-pulled LINK Trains (among other things) running between the airport terminals and long-term parking over in the Aviation section. It's a decent ride if a bit bumpy, similar to riding a bus. Since the cars are being pulled instead of riding on their own power it tends to exaggerate the bumps when two of the track beams meet. Perhaps this has more to do with the number of curves and pitch changes required to navigate around the airport.

such a great choice (IMO) it looks like a elevated tram, innit?
