Part of the Vancouver SkyTrain network, New Westminster Station is on the Expo line between 22nd…read moreStreet (towards Waterfront) and Columbia (towards King George or Production Way-University). It is in Fare Zone 2 and has side platforms, so doors open on the right. The station was completed in 1985 and received an extensive remodel/rebuild in 2012 when it opened as part of the Shops at New West center. Shops at New West has restaurants, supermarket, a cinema and lots of retail spending opportunities. There is a bus stop here with connections on a dozen or so lines. Escalators and elevators are here as the station is fully handicapped accessible. It is above ground and somewhat protected from the elements. But this is Canada, so if it's cold outside then it's cold on the platform. [Review 20887 overall - 63 in British Columbia - 1871 of 2023.]

The place consists mostly of small businesses, with easy SkyTrain platform access. There's a bit of everything in there, such as banks and fast food. There's even a supermarket (Safeway) attached. My favourite part is the caged (suicide-proof) bridge that crosses over the tracks. Great for watching the trains go by while reflecting on life.

Except there aren't really any breweries here (other than ABC which is closer to Braid station). The old Labatt brewery is long gone and replaced by condo towers. The one thing that sticks out is that there is a nice elevated bridge that goes over Brunette, such that one isn't forced to go all the way down to street level then forced to walk all the way back up the hill, which I'm sure makes life much easier for some. The platform itself has this funky wheel sculpture. Wonder if it actually spins. Too bad it's between the platforms in a restricted area. Can't check it out without getting zapped or arrested. The other thing that is a bit weird (not sure if this applies to other stations) is that at night, one entire platform shuts down. In other words, trains use the same platform for both directions, despite what the "regular" signage says. The only way to know what's going on is to look at the screens on the platform and ignore the signage.

What sets this station apart is that there are 3 platforms instead of 2. Trains moving in the same direction can be on different platforms depending on the line. In other words, one cannot simply get off the train and wait for the next one when switching lines. Read the signs carefully. There is a large bus hub at this location.

Pretty much unchanged since the 1980s. Futuristic look back then. Now it looks like a worn down space station. To be honest, the station itself isn't very good for several reasons. First, it doesn't actually span the road - the entrances are only on the E side. Secondly, the original station was obviously built without accessibility in mind. The staircases are narrow and steep. There are also no escalators. Looks like they added a ramp as part of a later series of renovations. Lastly, the platform area is pretty cramped. Yes it does the job, but it's definitely not one of the nicer stations in the network.
