Two restored PCC cars were providing free service between 11:00 am and 4:00pm on this special day. Apologies for the poor video quality. The original file was altered by Blogger after being uploaded.

New Look For St. Clair Avenue West
It is ironic, perhaps, that GM New Look buses are providing some of the service along St. Clair Avenue West in Toronto while the transit right-of-way is being constructed. Within a few years, brand new streetcars will roll up and down this busy thoroughfare. The second photo shows the current state of construction near Wychwood Avenue. Cell phone shots.
