That King Kong wrap is terrifyingly good.
I had to do a double-take. Very, very good bus wrap!
Normally I don't like bus wraps as a passenger because it makes my view less scenic. But for
THIS wrap, probably paid generously and reduces taxes, I'm perfectly fine with.

Graffiti does not count.
Fun pictures! Although I know it's not your photography, I prefer not to perpetuate grafitti photography of this nature, as Grafitti artists are thrilled to see their work on the Internet. I personally would remove this ONE photo (please) or at least pixelate the grafitti (to annoy the artist) -- publicity of their art helps the vandals perpetuate...

Other than that ONE picture -- very great highlights of wrap photography, especially the gorilla grab! I had never seen that one. Here are a couple of other faves I've seen online before, though:

If this keeps up, we'll end up needing to find the old "Transit Advertising" thread (Wasn't there one?) and put the photos there. :)

What major construction event happened in the last month? Presumably this is a PR event for that.
Didn't the dig to Yonge just start?

Well, they've just selected a proponent for the project and it achieved financial close. So perhaps the unveiling of the proponent scheme?

Are we sure this won't be a re-announcement of something?

Wouldn't surprise me. We will see.

There will be some kind of announcement re: Eglinton by Min. of Transportation tomorrow morning.

Maybe they're announcing the official beer of the Eglinton LRT line? The official coffee of the Eglinton LRT line? The official bank of the Eglinton LRT line? The colour scheme?

Or maybe the province is concerned about its debt and credit downgrading so it has decided to fill in the tunnels rather than pay for the rest of construction.

Nah, they've decided to run monorails in it.

My guess is that it's just about the financial close of the final contract and that the TBMs have started digging again.
