Train to Somewhere

from Better Ottawa · host Neil Saravanamuttoo

I sat down with Gio Petti, the local filmmaker behind the recent YouTube documentary on OC Transpo, Train to Nowhere — Gio’s follow up to the 2024 release Dude, Where’s My Bus? Gio and I talk about the history that brought us to the current Line 2, and the original O-Train that preceded it. We also talk about what motivated Gio to make these films, the experience of south Ottawa residents since its opening, and what this train says about the fixes we need for OC Transpo. Watch the films online: * Dude, Where’s My Bus? * Train to Nowhere Let us know what you think.
