This gave us a noticeable bump in visitors over the past two days. The Star is Toronto's major newspapaer so the effects oif the article are likely to be felt over the next few weeks.

We also had a bit of a bump due to the recent airing of an episode of Murdoch Mysteries, a popular Canadian "whoodunit" TV series set in Toronto in the early 1900's. The museums' two operating ex-TTC Wiit cars, 2424 and 2894 were featured prominently for 3 or 4 minutes with "dead" Witt 2786 and London & Port Stamley interurban #8 spotted to provide background for the scenes.

Kudos to the young spokesperson in the video, too. That's some good PR.
