Comments on: A snow/sleet mix appears to be falling on this mid-April (!) Saturday, as passengers crowd the streetcar platforms at the corner of Dundas Street West and Bloor Street West waiting to board a streetcar and get out of the weather. TTC A-13 class PCC 4738 (a former Birmingham car purchased secondhand) leads the pack signed up for the Dundas route, turning from northbound Dundas to westbound Bloor on a diversion west to Park Loop (once located at the north end of High Park off Bloor) during construction of the nearby Dundas West subway station on the yet-to-be-opened Bloor Danforth line. Other photos taken by Mr. Bromley that day show some Dundas streetcars were still looping at nearby Vincent Loop, so this may have been a Runnymede branch car only going as far as Bloor and diverting. Puddicombe Motors is pictured on the right at the southwest corner of the intersection (a large local Ford/Mercury dealer in the area). And, note that stylish 1960′s Buick on the left! John F. Bromley photo, Dan Dell’Unto collection slide.
