5 years ago, I rode Toronto’s iconic and venerable CLRVs on Toronto’s streets for the last time with my Grandpa. Miss these iconic streetcars, and hope to see the @TTChelps upgrade the vehicles it retained with pantographs for heritage service.

I tried to ride all of LA County's 45 bus systems in one weekend. It did not go well. https://t.co/czzFMnEFVt

The first map of my series of Union Station Toronto maps is done!

Did you know Union Station Toronto is so large that the entire station has never been included in a single map? This series of 9 maps will be the first time the entire station complex has been mapped out:

Good evening from Chicago Union Station!!!!

Photographer Pat Nabong and I are riding the very first run of Amtrak's Floridian train from Chicago to Miami for the @Suntimes.

We'll be on the train for 46 hours (at least). I'll live tweet the journey here ⬇️

The Calgary CTrain: high-floor light rail. This is how every North American city should be building LRT.

Thinking about the CLRVs on the green line

Some electric trolleybuses in Seattle.

[Nick Westoll @NWestoll]

There’s some progress on the #HamOnt @GOTransit front. A pocket track connecting West Harbour GO station east to the main line is now in. It wasn’t installed when the station opened, resulting in a lengthy backtracking process to go east. This can better allow Niagara service.

No better way to get to Toronto Pearson Airport than the @UPexpress!
