How easy would that be?

Hmm. I wonder whether they could have designed it so that tapping off automatically overrides your default trip, and you wouldn't have had to press an 'override' button? Maybe if the system detects that you tapped on within your default route? Would that add too much of a computational overload...

If you have a negative balance, you must load it in person.

I came down from Sutton on the GO bus today, paying cash. I had business in Keswick, but once that was done, I decided to test the system by going to refill my negative-balance Presto card in person, so that I could subsequently refill it online. I paid cash on the GO bus to go from Keswick to...

My sister used to work in Commerce Court West, and she felt the building swaying during windy times. She also said that they had to slow the elevators during sway. Mind you, that's an older slab-shaped building.

Impressive indeed. Definitely. I was at City Hall on Saturday morning and noted the model in the lobby. And then I thought of this place. :)

This assumes that you have enough money in a chequing account, or that you have a working credit card. I am looking for work and have little money at the moment (this will change). But it's not just me. Up here, there are plenty of people who don't have working credit cards and run on a cash...

Looks like that's just at the top of the ramp, and they were matching the existing flooring.

From the Georgina Advocate: Presto woes irk riders. For the moment, I live near Sutton. I can walk out the door to the intersection and wave down the Beaverton GO bus to go through Sutton to Newmarket, and then onwards. However, there is nowhere near me to buy or refill a Presto card. There...

I thought it came from a now-defunct company, "Canadian Paper".

Yes, that needs to be a lot clearer. I *think* they mean, "Brampton period passes loaded on a Presto card can only be used in Brampton." Is it possible to have both a Mississauga and a Brampton period pass loaded on the same Presto card? And what seems more likely, is it possible to have a...

Cooooolllll.... :)

Hmm. Looks like they didn't quite get the concept of mini-roundabout.

Actually, you can borrow some books from the Reference Library... as long as they aren't in English. Many of the other-language collections have lendable books; we used to borrow French and Esperanto books there. They also have a large Chinese collection, I believe.

That's the bit I didn't know. I thought there was still a subway yard that had direct rail access.

We have an idea of what it might look like... (starts at 2:00)

So why can't we put rail wheels on cars and buses and use something like the guided busway as a transitional segment? They use rail and road wheels on service vehicles on the railways all the time. That way, you get the flexibility of regular vehicles at the ends of the journey, you don't need...

Saw two TR cars on Hwy 48! Sitting here at my computer, I just pulled off my headphones, turned, and looked out the window... just in time to see two eighteen-wheelers bearing individual Toronto Rocket cars pass by the end of the driveway. :eek: They were heading "south" on Highway 48 towards...

If only the train shed over Tracks 11 and 12 matched the original Bush train shed structure. I was hoping that they would rebuild the Track 11/12 shed during the renovation, perhaps using parts removed to make way for the glass atrium.

This thing is badly-situated: too far from the GO line and from freeways.
