FACT: Amtrak's Cascades colour scheme slaps.
A great execution of brand, identity and recalled not just outside, but inside too. Bravo.

People lined up to visit… a closed train station.

This might be my favourite project to work on every year, and this time, it is a MASSIVE one! For reference, the 2023 and 2022 ones were 16 minutes each...

Believe it or not, but this fella is responsible for 95% of all fare evasion in Ottawa.
Good thing he doesn't know how to read a schedule though, for now...

Exploring Lines 2 and 4 of the O-Train tonight!
I ran into some people who shared their experiences so far, and I am very happy to report they are very positive!
Comfortable ride, great trains, nice to have this corridor again!
If you haven’t already, take the time to go check it out!

An O-Train kinda week!
So happy to FINALLY be able to be onboard Line 2 and 4 after many years of waiting.
The Stadler FLIRT are a massive upgrade for Ottawa’s North-South line. Smooth, comfortable, high capacity.
Oh, and SCREENS.

Bermuda’s buses and ferries are fascinating.
Buses run every 15 minutes between St-Georges and Hamilton, and ferries connect the Royal Dockyard to Hamilton hourly.
Most buses are electric! Quite a ride on those narrow roads!
