Aug 4, 1971: CN Train No. 51, the Montreal-Toronto "Lakeshore," is held up at Dorval, QC by a group of robbers armed with machine guns. The train was boarded at Lachine when one of the bandits lay across the tracks, causing it to slow down. 1/3

work took me to weston the other day. what was once a 2 hour bus slog one year ago is now under an hour. i can take line 5 to mount dennis & transfer to regional trains to go up to weston. however, if this were my regular commute, I'd choose a slower Line 5 + bus trip. here's the problem... 1/3

A thumbnail of our Scarborough RT video shows the remains of McCowan Yard being demolished, with a Scarborough RT station building behind it.
