I borrowed this GοPrο from a friend. Anyone in the GTA got an extra one to buy (preferably 8 or later)? After drafting a video using footage from this walk, I'm confident I want to use one on all future walks.

Good morning, and happy New Year's Eve! While I'm not around here as often, I am making a start on YouTube. I have done my annual review of stuff for Metroscapes, but in video format. Go check it out! youtu.be/sdTjCL-Ke90?si…
Petition to just call the #HamOntLRT the Hamilton Street Railway and rename the transit agency
Can we go back to just birds or something?

2,500 km of #metroscapes walks across #Toronto, #KitchenerWaterloo / #Cambridge, #Hamilton and #Guelph. Roughly the equivalent of driving from Kenora to Vancouver.

News reporters hear this kind of rhetoric every day. While this interaction started off tense a quick chat led to an understanding.
It's super exciting that they have started to flood the new mouth of the Don River through the port lands. waterfrontoronto.ca/news/how-were-…

Including my detailed plan to officially rename 2002-VE68 to “ZOOZVE” to immortalize the typo and thus retroactively make the poster in my kid’s room correct! This plan falls into the category of so-crazy-it-just-might-work. And we will know the answer VERY soon. END OF THREAD.
Today at the TTC Board, I presented about expanding our narrative on transit priority — it’s not always about speed but about variability. This is needed every day and all day. Reducing variability means people can depend on transit. cdn.ttc.ca/-/media/Projec…

Not from Metrolinx, but back in 1982, when GO ALRT was being developed, there was a proposed loop around Hamilton:
@WBMetro62 This reminds me, Did Metrolinx ever study running Lakeshore trains in a loop around Hamilton? Stopping at GO Centre, looping to WH then returning to Oshawa? The tracks exist though freight negotiations and upgrades would be a must
Guys want one thing. And it’s to team up with someone who mildly annoys them to solve a mystery and then afterward open up a private detective agency together.
There are some beautiful illustrations in this article. My friend @bmdoucet and I talk about the Orangeville-Brampton Railway; also quotes from @RM_Transit and @shoshannasaxe.

The "sunroof" safety hatches are a wonderful detail that shows care for riders. They provide more natural light and visibility in the bus, and in the rare situation where the bus rolls, riders and emergency personnel can see each other.
Sadly, the TTC didn’t go with the “sunroof” exit hatches.
Toronto has many ravines with creeks and rivers running through them. All fresh water emanating from Oak Ridges Moraine heading to Lake Ontario. Truly an under appreciated ecosystem plagued with stormwater, salt, sewage, PAHs & grit. @swimdrinkfish
