Montreal's Metro is much smaller than it should be even though there are a ton of plan on the books to expand the existing system.

But the reality is that even if we added dozens of new stations and a few extra lines, we still wouldn't come close to some of the other Metro systems around the world.

So we decided to compare Montreal's Metro station with some of the world's biggest and oldest underground railways so see how we rank.
