About
Thanks for visiting my website!
Here's a little more information.
- Welcome, and thank you for visiting Transit Spotlight! This has been my ongoing project over the past couple of years to document transportation content. While the primary focus of this website is on Calgary Transit, this website also covers other transportation operators in the transit, coach and school bus businesses all across Western Canada.
- A bit about me, and the history behind this website. I'm a university student at a university in BC, and I have been doing transportation photography as a hobby since 2017. I currently live in Kelowna, but I lived in Calgary for 12 years. The original website, which launched as "TechSpotlight Photography" went live in June 2019, but was rebranded to "Transit Spotlight" in April 2022 to better represent the website's content. Over the years, this website has not only served as a transportation website, but as a way for me to work on and improve my web development skills.
- This website originally started off as a bus photo gallery, and while that still is the primary focus of this website, it has expanded to include transit history in 2022, and bus audio recordings in 2024. In these transit history pages, I dive into unique transit infrastructure around the City of Calgary such as former stops, obscure terminals, old transit-related signs and much more. I also explore the history of Calgary Transit routes through historical route maps, providing insight to what transit was like in the past.
