Super excited to talk to Jonathan English and Uday Schultz on their Regional Rail Report for Toronto!

Thanks! I am working more stuff in over time as I improve, for this video it was a case of just needing to get it out quick!

Did a video on this!

Made a video with my thoughts about the news: More Subways, More Problems...? | The Yonge North Extension

Building Toronto's Regional Rail | Ep. 7 | Bramalea GO We went to check out the progress at Bramalea! Enjoy!

Cross Post from Presto Thread - our video on the changes and why they matter!

We made a video on it and WHY its important:

In our latest video we talk about Toronto's "lost" subway station Bay Lower, and what may have happened had it been better designed!

Ok ok, these posts are getting out of hand but there’s definitely an unhealthy romanticism for transit city. I don’t comment much here these days but I will say this. 1) LRT is not slower than a bus because it’s got a high top speed is a silly argument, that’s like arguing that bikes are faster...
