I love old advertisements and signs painted on old buildings. Much more elegant than our modern billboards.
The photos immediately above and below were taken in Winnipeg; the next ones are from Seattle, Portland, Brussels, Montreal and New York.

Via Rail won’t let dirty windows ruin a Rocky Mountain vista. Here are some employees hard at work cleaning the windows of Toronto-Vancouver train “The Canadian” during a station stop in Jasper, Alberta.
