I get, unfortunately, the politics of it but let's just assume it was going thru a farmer's field, why couldn't it be elevated? If the tracks are simply heated to make sure there was no ice and/or snow on them, why can't they run outside?

I'd think the bigger concern outdoors is that the concrete runway be heated - not just the tracks.

I was bored tonight and found myself checking out EXO's network on Google maps. The placement of the stations leaves a lot to be desired. A lot of stations on the network remind me of the recently closed down, York University station that used to exist on the Barrie line.

1 year since the first segment of the REM opened.

It’s the REM’s first birthday!

On July 31, 2023, the REM opened five stations and welcomed its first passengers on board.
