    Ditto! Love me some bread pudding anytime.

    Toronto Union Station Revitalization | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | NORR

    A Michel's Baguette is what I believe you're referring to. Pizza, deli sandwiches and pastries like croissants, cakes and bread pudding. Yummy! Now to be found at the Commerce Court food court.. Until 5pm anyways.

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    Here in Brampton, the 3 stations within municipal boundaries are about as well served by BT/Zum as one could ask, with neighbourhood feeders as well as mainline routes running to/from and through each. In addition, Malton and Lisgar Go are quite well connected even being outside of Brampton's...

    Toronto Union Station Revitalization | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | NORR

    Could it be... maybe a certain favourite pastry stop we all know and love?? And who have already announced their impending return to Union Station? Hmm..

    Roads: Ontario/GTA Highways Discussion

    To be clear, I said I can navigate the 400 series at 130 comfortably. I usually don't. And I don't weave in and out of traffic willy nilly. I drive to the current weather and traffic conditions. I just find that the hwys can become unnecessarily congested when slow movers hold up the left lane...

    Roads: Ontario/GTA Highways Discussion

    2 things: 1) I drive every kilometre of the 400 series within the GTA, and also the DVP, Gardiner and QEW, every so often and I can do 130 over every bit of main freeway laneage if I so desire, congestion and weather permitting. Except portions of the DVP & Gardiner. It "can" be done, but...

    More Go train service overall..

    Umm.. There are no weekend trains on the Kitchener Line at present..

    I stand corrected. But the most recent job listing I was directly emailed yesterday did not include the position in question..

    And yet, Alstom doesn't seem overly concerned. As they don't seem to be looking for more CSRs, conductors or engineers at the moment..

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    Well, technically ML control stops short of Bramalea. So even that short access would have to be negotiated. Also, all stops Bramalea to Union takes 35 minutes. If this train were going to run, it would make sense to at least serve Malton and maybe Etobicoke North, and perhaps skip Weston and...

    But let's be real. 15 minute frequency on the Kitchener Line even as far as Bramalea is still a long way into the future. Even a 60 minute service is far more reasonable at this point and should be doable, to Bramalea for sure and optimally to Mount Pleasant. Alas, according to a post a few...

    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    Hmmm... I'm not sure if this is the place to pose this question again, but it is related so.. Even with a pushed back opening date to Spring 2023 for the ECT, the station and connection at Caledonia and the Barrie Go line doesn't seem as though it will be ready for service/use on day 1. Please...

    Further to this, GO already runs hourly throughout the weekdays (minus counter-peak), and it's not quite clear why the same (or similar, something as far as Mount Pleasant, say) couldn't happen on the weekends and especially holidays as well...
