Hello, my name’s Allen. I’m here to share my various train photos, news, and advocacy.
Focused mainly on British Columbia and Ontario, Washington and Oregon states but sometimes I will post a couple other adventures from where I’ve gone!

20·1 month agoIf you’re one of the doctors wanting to move to Canada and work, Todd Maffin (@tod) is looking to help you. He’s preparing quite a number of resources to save you from figuring out the whole convulted process yourself!

Our third participant and final challenger: in the southwest corner is the Seattle Monorail. Even if it is the shortest, oldest, most expensive to ride, and has the fewest stops of the three, it will not be outdone as it soars above the city at a higher speed to Seattle Center.

In the northwest corner, we have a challenger, the Seattle Streetcar South Lake Union Line (known informally as the South Lake Union Trolley). Traveling to Lake Union, this train is sponsored at nearly every stop and is wrapped from head to toe. Will the funny abbreviated nickname be enough to take on its competition?
In the southeast corner, we have the match favorite, the Link Light 1 Line!
Traveling underground through the Westlake area, the link light is sure to take you the farthest, from Northgate to all the way past the airport.

One of the better functioning streetcar routes in Toronto. The most iconic spot for the 501 King streetcar is under the Atlantic Ave. Rail bridge.

The RailDriver train simulator controller only has official Windows support.
After reading the technical documentation from the makers, I cobbled together a “driver” that reads input messages then puts it out as a virtual device like an xbox controller.
With two translation layers, and with calibration required every time, I am able to play TrainSimWorld with it, because out of the box it can’t seem to recognize it.
