TT Charter - Toronto Transportation Society Oakville Christmas Lights Charter (December 2022)
just curious how you were able to book knowing that you would be riding on the new train set
VIA publishes a list of which services the new trains run on their website. Go to the ‘New Fleet’ section under ‘Plan’. The list is updated about once every one or two months -RYS
Fun fact: the busways are color coded so you will know which bus goes on the busway with one exemption the 28X is the only bus that goes on the busway but doesn't have a color code anyways also the silver line was the most recent addition before it used to belong to the blue line and for the color code: Y=south busway G=west busway and P=east/ MLK busway
I just saw the etc in kitchen water street
3:49 this man outside is Robert Lepage, one of the biggest play director/Writer in the world!
Nice!
Igual que la de Chile
great vid. takes me back to Sunday afternoons using the TTC to go to the Gardens to see Marlie games. Anglesey 2A from Rathburn/Kipling to Jane/Bloor . streetcar from there to the start of the subway line at Keele subway. that was mid 60's. a bunch of us would go we weren't even teens. it was safe then
It's still pretty safe today. I've been out and about in the late hours without trouble. I remember, fifty years ago, there were places in Toronto you weren't supposed to go if you wanted to be safe. Places like Regent Park, or Donvale. I think the dangers of those neighbourhoods were exaggerated then, and the safety concerns of today are exaggerated now. You should always walk with street sense, and be aware of what's around you, but that's always been the case. I love my city today as much as I did forty years ago.
That thumbnail made me think that was on the floor
My Grandfathers house was 64 Bruce ...bought it new. Sold when he passed in 2004
Now so much rush there
Thanks for the memories 🎉
This is an amazing video with a real person doing the commenting!!!
The new trains are amazing. What we need next is a dedicated right of way for passenger trains. We take the train regularly between Ottawa and Toronto. Just today the train we took to Toronto was ‘just’ one hour late. A routine occurrence.
Yes indeed!
I miss these streetcar

I hope you don't mind; I ran your comment through the translator and got, "The Kyushu Shinkansen chime by Minoru Mukaitani". Thanks!
Great video!
Cool😊
great vids back in the day !!!not the same town now!!
This car has VISION?
I Love Renforth Station!❤
So pleased that someone had the foresight and the Camera technology to Record these images for Posterity, so Future generations can appreciate them and see how our city / nation has evolved. Now that Iphone cameras are so available, everyone has become a documentary filmmaker. I already feel a bit "old" because I recall when certain Toronto subway stations like Kipling and Kennedy and the St. Clair West line first opened and/or when certain bus routes werent in existence.
Were you in the garbage train
Long before my time but very cool to see what TO looked like while my parents were growing up.
I have family footage of Toronto from the early 50’s, the 60’s, the 70’s and the 80’s. My grandfather used to walk around with his video recorder every where he went.
Share it dude. Convert and share on RUclips. I love that stuff
How long does it take to get across the entire island?
About 5 hours. Some of the trains running in Hainan do run the full loop, starting and ending at the same station. -RYS
Took a return trip to Windsor from Toronto this past weekend. Lots of people yapping loudly, I e lady was watching a movie with no headphones...full volume...another guy sitting in the 4 seat section was spread out yapping on his phone the whole trip, had his shoes off and feet up on the opposite seat ...Ive been on better rides than this. I hate being forced to wear noise cancelling headphones when I enjoy the quiet ambience of a train ride
Thanks for this. I still see Kingston Road between Victoria Park and Queen St. East as the artery of my life. Between 2.00 and 3.05, Richard Glaze is shooting from the north side of Kinston Road, first north and then south of my parents's first house at 544 Kingston Road. Demolished in the mid-1980s. They lived there from 1951-54. We then moved to 218 Balsam, just behind Sherrin's Funeral Home, shown at 4.01. That house was demolished in 2014 or so. And that whole block with Sherrins' and the YMCA was likewise demolished and redeveloped. In February of 1957, in a blinding snow storm, we moved to 293 Silver Birch, which was in the family until 2001. It was subsequently renovated, the interiors transformed into a glitzy palace. Walking along Kingston Road, I went to the shops, stores and local schools. For years we took the streetcar from the stop at the top of Scarborough Road to Queen and Yonge to shop at Eaton's and Simpson's. Yes, there's was life beyond Yonge Street. Whenever I'm in the city, I drive along Kingston Road and the streets that branch off it. Now 55 years later, it's haunting to see it in the summer of 1969. Seemingly, other than where I lived, for the most part, the buildings. and houses on Kingston are the same, endure. The people are different. Thanks
Thanks TT - I miss those venerable cars - they were solid and reliable. Grew up with them in the 80's - 200's. RIP CLRV's +
Nice that these films of trolleybuses in Kitchener, ON were made despite the rain. Thanks for sharing! By the way, Chicago ended their trolleybus service just five days later on March 31, 1973.
The 4600 shown in this video is the first 4600, the A-10, ex Cincinnati Street Railway 1125, not to be confused with the second 4600, which was the A-15 (the rebuilt A-8 originally numbered 4505).
nothing is done with recycling, it is all trash, maybe under a magnet for metal. only 4% of material is ever recycled, its all a feel good program. Most plastic is not recyclable.
I really enjoy looking at videos of historic Toronto Especially those in the 1890s
I can’t wait to ride the LRT later this year!!
its opening this year?
@@transitgoods2477 They will give an opening date 3 months before
@@transitgoods2477 Metrolinx said they would give us 3 months notice of an opening date!
Fabulous to see. Thank you!
0:43 - unless Finch West opens first, which wouldn’t surprise me.
Yeah, I fully expect Finch West to open first!!
I hope that's not full speed
Hopefully it’s the average speed.
Great video but it’s missing just one thing. Subtitles. They would make an already interesting video that much more interesting.
I hope not, the driver better floor it on the surface sections lol
Line 5 runs with a 3 tram set. And TTC still testing with 2. Would be hilarious if Line 6 opens sooner.
Thanks very much for the great work!! Keep it up!! Cheers,
The Leafs are going to win the Cup!! It's 1962! My bit...I wired the front Terminal Boards, the Computers, as well as doing Check and Test, on the CLRV Streetcar Line, at Canada Car Thunder Bay! Proud? You bet! Canada Car also built the Hawker Hurricane, one of the better Fighter Airplanes of WW II. It was significant in the Battle of Britain.
You understood!!
i wish i could go back in time :-(
Ding ding!!!
Business class is a must. Single seats👍
Really miss those streetcars. They were so wide and spacious
We are lucky somebody made these films and they survived.
Exquisite colours!.. thank you for posting!... As a person who spent over 25 years working at TTC Hillcrest, I wonder if there is any vintage films of the same?
Great video, thanks for the upload!! It's a shame that a once respected system is now a shadow of its former self. Especially the subway system. Let someone who lived 100 years ago ride today, I'd give anything for their reaction.
I throughly enjoyed this video from beginning to end. A fantastic glimpse of yesteryear. I just love the ttc buses and streetcars and the cars of the 50s and 60s.
Was this transferred from 8/S8 mm or 16mm film?
16mm film.
Really fantastic! I'm not a transit/train buff, but I love the vintage TO footage!
Before anybody else says it, one mistake crept into this video: when we said PCC 4779 was the highest number assigned to any streetcar in Toronto, we are of course forgetting ALRV 4900 -- UTDC's prototype which operated in the city for a few months in the late 1980s. Ah, well.
Thank You, I remember/recognize pretty much, ALL of it.
Riding the TTC looks so chill and even fun back then. Nowadays, you're packed in like sardines, and on occasions have to deal with rowdy teens, and mentally ill people and risk getting stabbed.
I still ride the system for fun (I call it taking a long walk with assistance). You have to pick your times. The system also had a reputation for packing them in back in my day (the eighties -- that's when they initially talked about a Downtown Relief Line to deal with the humungous crowds at Bloor-Yonge), and we had our fair share of rowdy drunks and teens in those days (wasn't nice to share a car with them). We tend to forget the distressing stuff in the past, while being confronted with it in the present. I think the fact is, there's been good and bad things about this city for as long as it has been a city.
