A SkyTrain station in Coquitlam has a new vending machine offering something different than the ordinary fare.
The machine is stocked with packaged sushi rolls from nearby restaurant Sushi Mori.
TransLink says the vending machine is one of nine being installed starting this summer at transit stations around the region.
Other machines will feature food from other local institutions, including Nicli Pizzeria, Khaykery Bakery, and Da Candy Craze.

Two men with guns entered the restaurant, near Commercial Drive and Kitchener Street, at the height of Sunday brunch. They pointed the weapons at staff and patrons, ordering the victims to hand over cellular phones and other valuables, then fled in a vehicle.

Among the projects are plans to set up a national system for all marine pollution incidents, which includes preparing for releases of hazardous or noxious substances from ships.
