TTC stands for Toronto Transit Commission, which runs the city's buses, streetcars and subways. Hi Marcus,

How silly of them to replace one of the busiest routes in the city with buses back in 1948 and let those perfectly good, active tracks and wires along the street go to waste! I'm glad the T.T.C. came back to their senses finally in 1997 when they replaced the bus route with the LRT line. Shuffle Demons, even though you no longer exist either, "the Scarborough LRT may not be for you and me, but the Spadina LRT, let it now be!!

You should open it up for other users to post songs about their cities too. It could become a sort of musical library of urbanity. What ever happened to the forum? It's been up and down so much that I kinda gave up on it. It seems like it's up again but there aren't really very many posts. You might consider opening up the rest of the site as a forum- you've got lots of threads here that could start interesting discussion.
