Going nowhere

I take the Bloor-Danforth subway all the time. The state of the trains is a disgrace. It won’t be long before they go the way of the Scarborough RT and fall apart. What on earth has happened to this city, where we don’t seem to be able to keep anything running any more? The Romans built roads that still, more than 2,000 years later, exist. Yet we can’t even get the Eglinton-Crosstown built.

The amount of money squandered on the Eglinton Crosstown should have been spent revitalizing the east-west subway. As it is, it’s a road to nowhere, with ghost cars running by sporadically to give us the impression that something’s happening.
