A trip along either of Toronto's two subway lines in the present day is plenty of time to catch up on work, consume an entire podcast, or maybe just sit and disassociate between the omnipresent obligations of everyday life. But this wasn't always the case, and, for previous generations, that "end of the line" announcement used to come a whole lot faster.Let's look back at some of the TTC subway stations that were once the last stops on their routes.Line 1 Yonge–University1954: Eglinton, Union Toronto's — and Canada's — first subway line opened Mar. 30, 1954, with an initial 7.4-kilometre route connecting Union Station in the south with Eglinton Station in the north.

49 h. ago Ontario once had very bizarre McDonald's locations but they're gone forever

Although most McDonald's locations in Ontario look nearly identical today — with their grey exteriors and red columns topped with the chain's famous golden arches — some outlets had their own distinct quirky character throughout the 1970s and 1990s. As franchise owners worked to set their locations apart from others, many experienced unusual features that have since disappeared, including attached train cabooses to host birthday parties, and even one with a gas station built beneath it. For those who grew up in Ontario during the late 20th century, the sight of a bright red caboose beside your local McDonald's was a staple of childhood. Franchise owners across the province, from Chatham to Stratford, Barrie to Owen Sound, and Orangeville to Mississauga, converted former railway cars into dining rooms and play areas, and birthday party rooms. A McDonald's caboose restaurant in Chatham, Ont., in 1985.
