ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
(11-26-2015, 12:31 PM)UrbanCanoe Wrote: On this note (pun intended), CBC Radio's "This is That" program recently produced a short documentary about a gentleman in Calgary who provided his voice for their C-Train system but is now being replaced by a computerized voice. CLICK HERE to listen to the story.

That story is literally taking place in Toronto. (And probably the source of This Is That's idea for the segment, so they could fictionalize the story for laughs.)

The voice of the TTC subway announcer was replaced by a computer with the new Rocket trains (the bendy ones).
