Loyal reader, naturalist and Leaside gadfly Rudy Limeback is saying tonight that he waited a while for the 88 South Leaside on Overlea Blvd to take him back to Bayview Ave. but he spent the first 45 minutes talking to the driver because of another disruption at the CP Rail mainline crossing on Wicksteed Ave. So the bus was delayed. Those gates can be cranky. Seems we have a diversion of the 88 at least once a month. Tonight it was closed from about 8 to 9 p.m.
