While I may never see rapid transit in Canada in my lifetime, I can at least say that I’ve experienced the Shinkansen in Japan, the TGV in France and UK and express airport trains in Sweden. So I know what rapid transit, I just don’t think we’ll get there with such a large country as ours.

Solid post with great photos from Liam O’Connell about the #LIRR Atlantic Branch.
There’s been some “buzz” recently about making it a #RapidTransit service given its ability to run more trains on existing infrastructure and as a way to make Atlantic Avenue a more pedestrian-friendly space.
