Ontario Early Years Registry. Another website that I run that documents the rarest Ontario plates from the early 20th century. With the advent of social media, it seems more rare early plates have been surfacing and thought it would be beneficial for the collecting community to have one central repository for keeping track of these sightings. A common question always seems to pop up asking: “I wonder how many of those still exist?”. I’m hoping this website will be an attempt to answer that question.

The Central Terminal Restoration Corporation (CTRC) was founded in 1997 to oversee the stabilization and restoration of the Buffalo Central Terminal. A massive Art Deco train station that some Buffalo citizens are trying to save. I had a chance to visit the terminal in 2006 and it was truly amazing tour and step back in time. Well worth a visit if you’re in the area.
