Bloor Station Maybe

Bloor station maybe, where I first saw that blood on the tracks, where a woman had fallen in front of a train, or maybe she’d jumped . . . the T.T.C. has never been terribly forthcoming with this sort of stuff. Perhaps in the belief that it could only encourage others, or more likely, that it would frighten their riders. Instead, they announce emergencies and delays and label the box under each platform For Police User Only. It’s certainly large enough to contain some pretty hefty rescue equipment, but the story I’ve heard is that it contains nothing more than a shovel and a plastic bag.
