Holidays!

Post by **orudge** » 16 Jun 2006 18:43

I will be away in the USA for a couple of weeks starting tomorrow, and then away for a month in Brazil in July. I'll also be spending a week in Rome at the end of August. When I'm away, I may not have access to the Internet (should do in the US, probably not regular access in Brazil), so you'll have to make do without me for a while! I'll try to check in every now and then to see that everything's alright, although probably won't post (maybe a post or two under my roaming user). While I'm away, Patchman will be taking on admin responsibilities should anything need doing.

See you in a few weeks!

Enjoying our americaness? Oh ya you gotta head up north and visit canada. You'll have to come to Ottawa and go on a tour of Parliament or atlest go to Toronto and see the CLRVs and ALRVs. Trust me, YOU'LL LOVE THEM!!!

Yeah I say Toronto is a must go to. Plus your close since your in the USA.

If you do go to Toronto besure to also ride the subways. They make cool accerating noises and cool breaking noises. You won't be disappointed. Plus you can go up the Worlds Tallest Building, The CN Tower. Right underneath the CN Tower is a Streetcar Subway so it's pretty nice in Toronto.

The ALRVs run on the 511 and the 501. The rest of the routes run CLRVs. But the ALRVs give the smoothest ride. The frequencys on the 501 and 511 are every 4 minutes on a weekday 2 minutes in rush hour. The frequencys on the rest of the routes are every 2 minutes on weekdays and 1 minute in rush hour.

The 510 runs every 15 seconds on a rush hour. Every minute on a weekday. It's the route that runs in the streetcar subway under the CN Tower.

For a map on the TTC System just ask anyone at the ticket booths at the turn styles. They are free maps.

They also come in 10 diffent languages. Which is amazing considering English and French is the major languages in Canada.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you do happen to make your way to Canada let alone Ottawa, besure to ride our Transitway. Going on it you can go from Downtown to the suburbs without seeing 1 single traffic light.

Also the 90's are the transitway routes that stay on it except near the end of there routes. (95,96,97) The 95 in my opinion is a must advoid. It's almost always crowded. The 97 goes to the airport and the 96 goes no where major.

Also the O-Train is also another thing you SHOULD RIDE!!! Because it might not be around soon. Also the vehicles will be fimilair to you since they are from Europe.

You'll love our Inveros which is quite popular to find around Ottawa as they are almost everywhere now. First they look nice and they got a cool rear door.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well these are just guides if you ever do make it up here. Toronto I would highly recommend and Ottawa would just be cool.

Trust me if you do go to Toronto you'll love the streetcars. Thank god SQ made them already for Locomotion. Your lucky because when I went I had to request them and lucky it was made.

Now my guide for Toronto is from a Tourist Perspective (mine) since it ain't my home town.

But the guide for Ottawa I tryed to make it from as much of a Tourist Perspective as possible. It's sort of hard since it is your home town.

So yeah don't just visit American, visit Canada too since your so close you should. Also you should see CLRVs in motion for your self before there gone since there trying to find a replacement right now. So hurry before it's too late.

Bon Voyage!
