Operator’s Window: Inside Toronto’s Subway Cab
Get the view few ever see — stories of safety, congestion, humanity, and the future of Ontario transit, straight from behind the controls.
The Operator’s Window
Transit is more than steel, signals, and schedules. It’s people, choices, and the hidden stories that shape every journey. From the cab of a Toronto subway train, I see the things most riders never notice — the ripples of a small delay, the quiet moments of kindness on the platform, and the cracks in a system stretched too thin.
The Operator’s Window series brings those stories forward. Each post offers a first-hand view of the challenges, risks, and possibilities facing Ontario’s transit system — and connects them to the Ontario Connected vision for a safer, faster, more dignified future.
