Montreal Transit Corporation : ウィキペディア英語版
Société de transport de Montréal

The Société de transport de Montréal (STM) ((英語:Montreal Transit Corporation)) is a public transport agency that operates transit bus, and rapid transit services in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Established in 1861 as ''Montreal City Passenger Railway Company'', it has grown to comprise four subway lines with a total of 68 stations, as well as over 186 bus routes and 23 night routes.
The STM operates the fourth most heavily used urban mass transit system in North America, after the New York City Transit Authority, the Mexico City Metro, and the Toronto Transit Commission.〔 As of 2011, the average daily ridership is 2,524,500 passengers: 1,403,700 by bus, 1,111,700 by rapid transit and 9,200 by paratransit service.〔
The Société de transport de Montréal (STM) was created in 2002 to replace the Société de Transport de la Communauté Urbaine De Montréal (STCUM).
==History==

Several other public transport companies existed prior to the creation of the STM. From 1861 to 1886, the Montreal City Passenger Railway Company operated a small network of horse-drawn trams (also called streetcars in North America).
Then in 1886, the company changed its name to Montreal Street Railway Company. The first electric tram appeared in 1892 and was nicknamed the Rocket. The company underwent another name change in 1893: MSTR became the MTR for Montreal Island Beltline Railway. A year later, the network was fully electrified and in 1894, the last horse-drawn tram was taken out of service. From 1910 to 1911 the company was renamed Montreal Public Service Corporation before changing again to Montreal Tramways Company.
Although they were put into service in 1919, buses only began to be widely used starting in 1925, with the creation of several regular lines. Then in 1937, the first trolleybuses were used. In 1939, the company had 929 trams, 224 buses and 7 trolleybuses, serving about 200 million passengers per year. The replacement of tram lines by buses began in 1951, when a law was passed by the provincial government transferred the overall management of transport in Montreal to a public organization, the Commission de transport de Montréal (CTM). The last tram was withdrawn from service in 1959.
The Metro was inaugurated in 1966 and the same year saw the end of the movement of trolley.
The CTM became the Commission de transport de la communauté urbaine de Montréal (CTCUM) in January 1970, and in 1985, rebranded itself again by becoming the Société de Transport de la Communauté Urbaine De Montréal (STCUM). Commuter trains ceased to be the managed by the STCUM in 1996 and responsibility for this service was transferred to the newly created Agence métropolitaine de transport.
It was not until 2002, at the time of the time of the merger of Montreal with other municipalities on the Island of Montreal that the Société de transport de Montreal was created, taking the place of the STCUM.
