The Milton Line was the fourth GO Transit rail corridor, after the original Lakeshore line in 1967, Georgetown in 1974 and Richmond Hill in 1978. The route was originally opened by the Credit Valley Railway in 1879. It is the only GO train line to operate mostly on CP tracks.

Oct 26, 1981: GO Transit begins rail service between Milton and Toronto Union Station with three weekday-only rush hour round trips. Intermediate stops were at Meadowvale, Streetsville, Erindale, Cooksville, Dixie and Kipling, where riders could transfer to the TTC subway.

"The diplomats said the objections center on the wording of 'associate membership,' not the broader goal of closer ties." Well, that's fine.

Selection of non-alcoholic beers. A lot of room for bars, restaurants and corner stores to expand their menu offerings, but the sheer selection from local and national breweries is great.

Watching Toronto's industrial Portlands get turned into a giant public park with the now-not-as-polluted Don River running through the middle of it. I took pictures of giant Oil tanks on Cherry St 25 years ago, now its a greenspace! I never pictured this happening at the time.
