Got this a while ago at Mimico GO, its a Lakeshore West train, presumably from Niagara Falls running express through Mimico eastbound toward Toronto, the consist is a typical GO consist of MPI MP54 #663 pulling 11 Bombardier Bi-Level cars and 1 Bombardier Bi-Level CEM cab car, being roughly 327m/1073ft long.
GO Transit F59PH #564 pulling 5 Bombardier Bi-level cars, and 1 CEM cab car, Running express through Newmarket ON, Southbound on the Barrie Line toward Toronto.
I assume its out of service as the Barrie Line does not have regularly scheduled express or skip stop service.
Captured at Newmarket GO, in Newmarket Ontario.
Probably one of my favorite shots in a long time, my lens was in a bad mood but cooperated just long enough to get this!
Taken at Rosedale Station, from the Rosedale Ravine Road bridge facing North.
its sO annOying on reddit where il have an idea or have something i want to say, il slap it together in a post in a relevant community, make sure its coherent enough to be readable and off i go.
Last night i made a post after getting home from work about Delivery Kamakaze's (Food delivery eBikes that ride recklessly) and how the police need to crack down on them. Was there lots of issues with the grammar and punctuation? Yes, but did it still get the point across? Also Yes.
But No no, instead of talking about what i was talking about in my little rant, nope, everyone is gonna sit there, oh this period, this comma, this capitalization is incorrectly placed, why did you use this word and not this longer more impressive looking word instead? You must be illiterate.
How about this, its fucking reddit, this is not a university essay, its not a business email to my boss, its a post on social media, so no im not going to sit here and meticulously make sure everything is perfectly worded and all the punctuation is perfect, as long as its legible and gets my point across, good enough. So Fuck off Karen, go jack off or something and leave me alone.
Just ti be clear, Not all delivery riders are Delivery Kamakaze's, there are lots of riders like myself who do deliveries on eBikes, but, were actually safe and responsible on the road, even if it means you have to wait a little bit longer and i get a smaller tip.
As a way to make some extra money on the side, i used to go Downtown to do deliveries on my bike last summer, but this year i decided not to try again, why? The scheer number of times these absolute morons took me out, or nearly took me out and their general idiocy constantly blowing my mind, infact, when riding downtown, its not the cars im worried about, ive had few issues with them, as most drivers seem to be expecting bikes and watch for us, its these Kamakaze's im most worried about.
They dont look when pulling away from the curb, they are distracted while riding, They dont obey red lights or stop signs, Theyll go lane filtering up the middle of traffic at full speed, Theyll pass cars, trucks and busses with their right turn signal flashing on the right if you give them the chance. To other cyclists in narrow bike lanes, oh they dont care, theyll knock you over trying to pass you when there is clearly not enough room. Pedestrians in the crosswalk? 10 points a peice and it dosent seem to be just a joke to them as it is to any normal person.
I honestly prefer to get around by Bike over any other method of transportation when Downtown, but i just wont take the risk with these absolute morons getting away with this absolute fuckery. Toronto Police need to crack down harder than the americans did on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in WWII, not just for a week, or a month, but a year, 2yrs or ideally, permanently, and they need to start Yesterday. Start seizing or 14 day impounding bikes for reckless operation, start handing out hefty tickets for violators, start laying charges for careless operation of a motorvehicle casuing injury in situations where someone's hurt.
Morons on the roads arent just driving cars, some of them got too many DUI's or just never chose to get a drivers license for their own reasons, and choose to terrorize the streets on 2 wheels instead, its about time the cops realize that.
Im a 24yo blue collar, working class dude living in Canada, Politically i consider myself to be a conservative (Conservative not MAGA). I recently just lifted myself out of homelessness, and spent a few years struggling and getting moved from city to city in the shelters.
P.S Be Kind to me and il return the favor, even if we disagree, be an ass and youll be ignored.
P.S.S, Im just a rando not a political expert, expect mistakes, contradictions or for me to just not know about some topics.
