The Harold Hill of subways, lol! It might actually work if Rob Ford did that!

I found another gotcha...Brackenreid suggests to Winston Churchill that "who knows, someday you might be Prime Minister".

George suggests the use of "half silvered glass", two-way mirrors, as a useful tool to have installed in police interview rooms.

I love it when Murdoch Mysteries makes a joke that only people from the future would get. Do any other MM historical in-jokes come to mind?
Maybe not so much a joke, but Murdoch finds the need to layout the details of all his cases on a blackboard (sometimes with pictures) ... now not only are "murder boards" used by all the investigative teams on TV but many have moved on to glass walls!

I guess that would count as modern "project management" or the use of "dashboars". Hmmm, wait a minute... *has Murdoch vision* *runs to Photoshop*

I'd like to update this for Season 8 - could folks help me out with a list? Offhand I remember the circum-whatsit from the honeymoon. The stereoscope picture match thingy in What Lies Buried. The "vibrator" chair. I can't quite remember the names. What else was there? Seems like this year was thin on inventions...

There was also another vibrating chair in Invention Convention during the invention montage as well. It seems that the MM crew like their sex toy gags. That, or I'm just a raving pervert.

I'm going to have to google the Violet Wand, which is going to reveal me as an Innocent Babe in the Woods...

Mr. Drury says a "world class city needs a world class subway". You mean...a monorail! In the Artful Detective episode, Murdoch: "I believe Mr. Blechman aspired to create a train that levitated by means of magnetic propulsion." Brackenreid: "A train that floats in the air. Bloody ridiculous - the man was crackers!" He was trying to invent a monorail!

Bloody ridiculous - the man was crackers!" He was trying to invent a monorail! My understanding is that Toronto was actually having some monorail-style drama at the time, too. I wonder how that turned out...?

The Spy Who Came Up to the Cold foreshadowed "carding", the police gathering information on people who had not done anything, which has become a very hot topic here at the moment.....
