Transit Stories
Posted by Richard on Friday, 15 December 2006
Vancouver bloggers recently have been writing stories of what they observed on transit here. The weather in the Lower Mainland has been a little nutty, first with a snow storm then storms of other kinds (today a wind storm that caused traffic snarls (e.g. power failure at VCC-Clark SkyTrain Station). Here are a few of the stories I noticed:
- a couple of overheard conversations on the bus
- a recent spitting incident causing a SkyTrain to stop
- a photo memorial of the Granville Station florist shop
- from Beyond Robson, drama on the bus, with some bystanders trying to have a sense of humour about the situation, and chocolate and a smile on the number 2 bus
Any that I missed from the last couple of months?
One of the ideas I had for a Vancouver transit community site was a "transit stories" section, since a lot of crazy stuff happens during the day when a group of people from a wide range of backgrounds share an experience for an hour or two each day.
