Well sorry for having an opinion contrary to yours. Maybe if this wasn't simply a temporary fix that will have to be rebooted in another 10-15 years I'd agree...
Ive always thought that the issue with the St. Clair ROW was not about transit...it is about TTC and City Council railroading something through the local area...

Hi Dale; Apparently 4245 has major problems. It caught on fire earlier this year and was repaired & put back in service. But apparently it's now back in...
