Happy Friday! I haven’t done any kind of train/transit video in a very long time … so here you are. This is a mix of original (MR-63), vintage (MR-73) and modern (MPM-10) rolling stock running on the Montreal métro, as captured at a few stations last month.

Nothing gets people together like good music!

This is Seattle-based Squirrel Butter (Charlie Beck and Charmaine Slaven) performing at Pike Place Market … with some very happy kids dancing along.

Erotic fun

You’re hard pressed to find any guide book that doesn’t suggest a visit to the Mannequin Pis in Brussels. Some folks take it more to heart than others. Of course, I’ve got totally the wrong angle on this one. 🙂

The Eiffel Tower in Paris puts on a five-minute light show at night, on the hour, much to the delight of tourists. Caught this video a few nights ago, just as I was leaving, at first unaware of this sparkling sensation.
