I was also near the station, so I could leave quickly on that train -- 3:22pm when I tapped on according to Presto activity record, I think around the time the streetlights went back off.

I only went to Hamilton (West Harbour), last train to make it there on time, then first train back (3:25pm, though it waited a couple of minutes to let more on). It was crowded, but didn't initially look quite as bad as the photos above, though it got worse as more boarded on each trip. On the...

I tried to look up some kind of number for how often this is happening as compared to a few years ago, but wasn't able to find anything specific. It certainly seems to be occurring more often. It also seems strange that sometimes the announcements (when you can actually hear and understand them)...

There are certainly hawks and some falcons in the city. You can probably see big Red-tailed hawks circling around overhead every day, or sometimes perched on the top of utility poles, and occasionally eating something they've caught (and I think most are fascinated or even happy to see it, not...
