Mike's Light Rail Trip On Canada Day
Part Two
Here is the "Second Section" of images and video footage from my Canada Day journey on Ottawa's light rail system.
The images were snipped from the videos.
Lots of meets are held in the journey across town.
The car I am traveling in was made by Alstom in 2018.
We've departed Tremblay located at the VIA Rail station and continue west towards the city.
