Toronto Buses - Come Rain or Shine

Railfans tend to come out when the sun shines. Bus drivers don't have that luxury. Neither rain nor sleet nor blowing snow will keep these people from showing up to work. Which means that many railfans aren't around when these bus drivers are out in wet conditions, doing their duty... until now. David Cavlovic had his camera along during a record downpour and captured these shots of buses getting wet.
