CHOO CHOO We're getting a train!

New Ontario Northland terminal in Timmins

When Ontario Northland new passenger rail service resumes, a new terminal will be situated in Timmins.

Used to way back in the day, then there was a service with a short bus ride out of town but they got rid of that. Now we have the train coming straight here. I don't know how often I'll use this service depending on what Porter flights cost vs a train ticket, but it's nice to know it's going to be here.

It's Canadian, of course it isn't going to be coal fired. Tar sands FTW!

 

[Red Squirrel]

Probably diesel electric. Would be nice to see pure electric though but probably be a while before that happens.

There is no electrification here in the GTA, so don't hold your breath for northern Ontario.

Amazon is shipping my cat food order in four separate shipments, all arriving tomorrow, each with a separate estimated arrival time. I wonder if they really will send four trucks out?

Some women going around houses pretending to sell chocolate bars but she's actually scoping houses for children. Crazy stuff.

She came to my house the other day. 10 bucks for 1 chocolate bar!!11 Guessing that outrageous price is to distract parents that may in fact have children nearby. Some might feel bad (she has a whole sob story about what she's picking up money for) and actually leave her there and go get money while the kids are in view and can be snatched up.

 

[IronWing]

Wait a minute. You can unload your kids for only $10? Cool.

 

[Red Squirrel]

Apparently.

Heck I don't even think you need to pay. If you're taking too long to fumble around in your money in the other room they'll take all your kids!

Though I'm not sure if that is the goal of the scope out, as there is another remark about them putting dots on your door to indicate number of children. So I wonder if they come back at another time.

I'm a bit concerned by the 27 dots I found on my door... I didn't know I had children.

Mmmmm donuts. Is there a spot where you can just stick your mouth so it feeds it directly inside? From factory to mouth!

 

[Stiff Clamp]

I should have stopped in back when I lived near a Krispy Kreme joint. I just bought 'em in grocery stores.
