- EXO 1 → Vaudreuil–Hudson line
- EXO 2 → Saint-Jérôme line
- EXO 3 → Mont-Saint-Hilaire line
- EXO 4 → Candiac line
- EXO 5 → Mascouche line
- EXO 6 → Deux-Montagnes line
– While Exo has numbered their commuter rail lines, they have not abandoned the previous names. On this webpage the lines are listed it two places – once with the names (eg. Deux-Montagnes line), and once with the number and name (eg. exo6 - Deux-Montagnes line) but never with just the number. Even the official route map lists only the name (eg. Deux-Montagnes) with no mention of any numbers. Clearly the numbered names are not even the WP:OFFICIALNAMES, yet alone the WP:COMMONNAME which the Wikipedia articles should reflect.
More simply, the article title Saint-Jérôme line is much more descriptive to the average reader than EXO 2 or Exo2. BLAIXX 17:48, 20 September 2018 (UTC)
- AGREE I saw this is an obvious wrong move at the time but didn't have the time or energy to object. Secondarywaltz (talk) 18:34, 20 September 2018 (UTC)
- Support. Looking at the website of the agency, it's clear that these are Line numberings, not total renamed. It's also pretty clear that "Exo" (and, no, per WP:MOSTM we do not use all lowercase spelling) is a service branding, not the name of the agency itself, and the move of the agency article from RTM to Exo was also a mistake born from over-enthusiasm resulting in jumping to conclusions instead of actually processing the actual situation. It appears analogous to the Chicago area, where the RTA is the agency that uses the Metra and Dash branding for their commuter trains and buses respectively, albeit one brand is used for both. At the very lest, these articles must be moved back. oknazevad (talk) 19:38, 20 September 2018 (UTC)
