First time I saw a bike car on a rush hour Lakeshore East GO Train.

Great idea, but I feel GO Transit should advertise which trips have em.

So cyclists can know when to use em.

I wanted to compare what I saw on Seattle's Line 1 LRT with Toronto's Finch LRT.

In Seattle, you can see left turning cars waiting while fast-moving transit gets priority. Help TTCriders make it happen in Toronto: www.ttcriders.ca/greenlight

The first of my Montréal series of videos is up on the Transit Toronto YouTube Channel.

Here I filmed REM timelapse from Brossad to Deux-Montagnes. It also features a sneak peak of the DSLR footage which I plan to use in a future video.

As we approach the eve of the Finch West opening.

I found a mug I bought from the TTC when the last transit expansion opened in 2017.

Good times.

We’re very concerned to hear about this incident at Dundas Station and are thinking of the TTC employee and their loved ones. Hoping for a full recovery. Thank you to everyone responding and supporting riders and workers during a difficult day.

We had an incredible Streetcar Summit on Sunday! Thank you to the over 200 people who joined us to share their experiences riding the streetcar and what needs to be done to improve the system.

This is just the beginning! Stay tuned for our push for the world-class streetcar system we deserve 🚋✨

27 years ago today, Swissair flight 111 crashed off the coast of Peggy's Cove, Nova Scotia.

The cause was due to an in-flight fire in the cockpit from faulty wiring of the in-flight entertainment system.

RIP to the 229 people who lost their lives that night.
