    The LINK Interterminal Shuttle is a people mover service connecting Terminals 1 and 3 at Toronto Pearson International Airport in Toronto, Canada. It opened on July 6, 2006, replacing a shuttle bus service.
    Prior to 2003, the shuttle service was operated by contractor Penetang-Midland Coach Lines (PMCL).

    Vehicle

    The shuttle has two trains of six cars each, built by DCC Doppelmayr Cable Car GmbH and Company of Wolfurt, Austria. They use a drive and tension system. Each train has capacity for 150 passengers with baggage (25 per car - 17 standing, 8 seated) or 2,150 per hour per direction. Travel time is 3.5 minutes one way. If ridership increases beyond the capabilities of the system, the stations have been built to accommodate seven-car trains, increasing capacity to 175 passengers per train.

    The same cars are currently used in the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada and at Birmingham International Airport, Birmingham England.
