Trailer for a film on the Toronto transit system, featuring some wonderful photography; it's a product of the Stephen Low Company, which also filmed "Rocky Mountain Express" a couple of years ago:

My own computer had issues with the Vimeo link above; if yours does, too, this link may provide a better feed:

I found that the "historic" footage at the end was from the Halton County Radial Railway, a heritage line I never heard of until looking up other commentary on "The Red Rocket." It looks like a pretty energetic organization, judging from their promotional film on their website:

The place of the commentary mentioned above. Talk about nitpickers and critics!

All this reminds me--Toronto is getting a bunch of new cars to replace the stylish, relatively modern (post PCC) light rail cars that are now over 30 years old. Is anyone working to get one for a museum?
