Oh, those orange vinyl seats...
I have so many memories of the TTC's old H4 subway trains... Hours spent en route to concerts at the ACC, to doctors' appointments uptown, riding for the fun of it (and for a comfy place to sit and write) as a teenager.But as of this morning, the old H4s are out of service.
For most, the subway is a day-to-day fixture, not worth noticing. But I see a subway and smile, because I'm a sentimental Torontonian in love with her hometown.
Edward Keenan of The Grid seems to get it. Just read this loving prose.Do you miss the H4? Love the new trains? Or are you ambivalent about public transit?
