Bagged and Tagged
It’s chaos at the carousel.
Now that VIA Rail has introduced mandatory checked luggage on its express trains, we’ve endured long waits, a few bruises and several cases of mistaken identity. Now we’ve found a way to spot our bag among countless other black wheelies—Tagalongs Not Your Bags tags ($10) come in poppy colours like pink, mint and lime, with bilingual messages that bluntly make their point: That’s My Stuff, Don’t Take Me, Maybe Not, and Guess Again. It doesn’t get any clearer than that.
Now if only they’d help get us a cab.
