It's a busy afternoon down at the TTC's Humber Loop, one of the two west-end terminuses of the Queen streetcar line, and long a notable interchange point between TTC streetcars and buses in southern Etobicoke. Here, TTC PCC 4391 (middle) takes on a load of passengers next to the waiting room building before beginning its trip back east along Queen to Neville Loop. Inbound 4426 (right) waits behind, and on the left another 4400-series car (4415?) sits on the other loop track for a trip further west to Long Branch Loop. A TTC GM "fishbowl" bus on a connecting route sits behind the waiting building in the bus loop. All of this is viewed from the embankment of CN's Oakville Sub to the south.

Original photographer unknown, Dan Dell'Unto collection slide.

  1. I enjoy the track arrangement.

  2. The curve on the track heading out to the right is amazing. You’d only get a speeder around that curve, not many rail cars are going to make it. :-)

  3. I measured it on Google Earth, It comes in at about 16m so very roughly 52 1/2 feet.
