@ottaross Kingston-born boy here.

Kingston has always been fortunate in having far more rail service than their population justifies, simply because they're the halfway point between Toronto and Montreal. I'm sorry that will change, but it really doesn't justify spending (10s of?) billions more to bring the line south, and upend the lives of many thousands more people, for a few dozen Kingston rail passengers on a typical day (maybe a couple of hundred on a holiday weekend for QueensU).

It's only 2½ hours to Union Station or the Gare Centrale anyway, so 3–4 regular-speed trains/day on the CN mainline will be more than adequate.

So excited because I got moved to the taller crane on the job yesterday. It's not often I am on a modernized crane. I love the spacious cab, the anti-glare coating on the curved window, and specifically the trolley camera!

Here's a couple of photos of our concrete pickup point. As an example of how difficult our job can be, I am three hundred feet (sorry for the Imperial - craning in N.A. is just like that sigh...) away from picking up 14,000 lb buckets, ten feet from an active roadway. I have to put the empty buckets down beside buses, cars, pedestrians, cyclists, and people, (sometimes rando joggers actually IN the site) and not hit anything. On a typical afternoon I do this up to a hundred times.
