After a distinguished career in Toronto with the TTC, Canadian Light Rail Vehicle (CLRV) 4187 rests on Glista Family Farms in Priceville, Ontario. 4187 entered service in 1981, and was removed from service on December 29th, 2019. 

4187 was purchased at auction in late May 2020. On July 31st, 2020, it left the TTC’s Russel Yard for its new home in Priceville, Ontario. It was the last CLRV to leave TTC property. It is currently resting a mere 100 metres away from the former Canadian Pacific Walkerton Subdivision, which was torn up in 1984. In a roundabout way, trains have returned to Priceville. 

4187 will be restored and preserved, with no major alterations planned for it. Future work will include running electricity to the streetcar so that the lights, gong, roll signs, and the horn function.

  1. They should compare notes with the beef farmers on Highway 6 who own the PCC.

  2. Fabulous! The wider track gauge is clearly evident.
