This photo is at Kennedy, the eastern terminal of the
Bloor-Danforth route. This line opened in several segments between
1966 and 1980. The Scarborough RT is a short escalator ride
up. Four stations along the Bloor-Danforth offer transfers to the city's traditional streetcar system.
With over a half century of service on its oldest portion, the subway
system has utilized cars from a handful of suppliers over the years. In a
much earlier time the vehicles had a distinctive red paint scheme.
The model in view here is the H6 series, built by Urban Transportation Development Corp. in the
later 1980s. |
