Bathurst station used to be a substantial transfer point, servicing the 511 Bathurst streetcar line south from the station to the CNE grounts, and the 7 Bathurst bus route north to Wilson Ave. The platform is pretty busy on a regular day, but gets crazy every year when the Canadian National Exhibition is going on. At that point, this becomes a major transfer for people wanting to go to the CNE, and streetcars run fairly continuously through the three week period. Outside of the Exhibition, the 511 streetcar serves around 20,000+ riders every weekday, and the 7 bus serves about 26,000. The platform itself is fairly large, and open to the elements. Passengers climb the steps from the platform up to street level, and then exit to the platform and board the buses and streetcars. It can be cold on the platform in the winter, but the overhead shelter keeps some of the precipitation and wind away. It does nothing to stop Toronto's ubiquitous pigeons away, though, and the TTC has tried a number of different tactics to combat them. At one point, the TTC played recordings of a distressed pigeon to try to keep the pests away. Inside the station itself, several of the signs are covered with spikes to keep pigeons from roosting there.

Honest Ed's is prominently located on the corner of Bloor and Bathurst Streets, running the whole length of the block. The exterior is covered with huge red and yellow signs advertising the name of the store, lit up like a theatre marquee. The store sign uses 23,000 light bulbs. The store consists of two buildings connected by a walkway that links up the west building on Markham Street and the east building on Bathurst Street. The interior is much more modest, with simple displays of low-priced merchandise, ranging from vacuum cleaners and winter coats to kitchenware, toys and grocery items. Much of the store's decor consists of posters and photos from old films and stage productions from Mirvish's theatres in Toronto and London, England, as well as of actors and musicians who performed in them (many of these inscribed to Ed Mirvish himself). Every piece of store signage is hand-painted. The outside facade is covered with humorous puns and slogans such as "Come in and get lost!" and "Only the floors are crooked!"
Barracks were a feature of the NSW railways at main stations, depots and termini. They provided accommation for for guards, drivers and firemen when booking off after working a train from their home depot to rest before working another train back home.
Abercrombie house on the Ophir Rd just out side Bathurst. An amazing place !
Pity I didn't have time for the tour.
The house was built in the 1870s by the Stewart family.
