The MPM-10 (Montréal Pneumatic Material 2010), also known as the Azur, is a fleet of subway trains currently under production by Bombardier Transportation for the Montreal Metro. A test train was delivered in 2014 and they were originally expected to fully replace the aging MR-63 trains by 2018. The first MPM-10 train entered into service on Line 2 on February 7, 2016.
In May 2006, the Government of Quebec announced the negotiation of a $1.2 billion contract to replace the MR-63 fleet of 336 cars. Alstom voiced its dismay over directly awarding the contract (to Bombardier) without a bidding process. Negotiations between the STM and Bombardier were ongoing until 2007. The negotiations focused on the project's cost controls, terms of contract, train specifications and warranty. If negotiations had failed, the Quebec government and the STM would have reverted to a bidding process.
On January 10, 2008, Quebec Superior Court Judge Joel Silcoff rendered his decision regarding Alstom's filing of legal action against the Quebec government's Ministry of Transportation. The latter sought to bypass the bidding process, citing that Bombardier was the only domestic candidate capable of fulfilling the eventual contract. Silcoff ruled in favour of Alstom, enabling the company to bid on the contract.
MPM may refer to:
MPM (2,5-dimethoxy-4-propoxyamphetamine) is a lesser-known psychedelic drug and a substituted amphetamine.
MPM was first synthesized by Alexander Shulgin. In his book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines i Have Known And Loved), dosage is given as "30 mg or more" and duration "probably short". MPM is of low potency and produced only slight effects at the highest dose reported in PiHKAL of 30 mg, although its effects at higher doses than this have not been reported.
Very little data exists about the pharmacological properties, metabolism, and toxicity of MPM.
Vaya notxe ke he pasado
