The Crosstown cars were designed and built by Bombardier. Exact same cars are running in Waterloo and Edmonton right now.

This is off topic, but I am curious. How are their BYD buses? I know they bought a lot of them. And I’m curious because of all the issues we’ve had with ours.

This is a great exercise in branding and is a sign of a city that knows and is happy to celebrate its history. The HSR has wrapped two buses in retro liveries and from last Saturday to yesterday offered free rides on them. They also had giveaways at different locations and a historical...

Looks like their spot inside The Well.

First new electric bus being finished

Some photos of trains with the young cherry trees at Rouge Hill GO Station.
