TTC PCC 4364 (A6-class built CC&F 1947-48) trundles westbound along Dundas Street West through the Junction neighbourhood, approaching Gilmour Avenue while passing rows of old houses and storefronts lining the south side. The streetcar is on the final approach to nearby Runnymede Loop, the westernmost terminus of the line.

This branch of the Dundas streetcar (that continued from Dundas West subway station through the Junction to Runnymede loop) was discontinued and replaced with the new 40 Junction trolleybus route, when the Bloor-Danforth subway line extensions opened in May 1968. Today it is operated by diesel buses, and much of this stretch of Dundas appears the same.

  1. I wonder if this is a TV fringe area? (height of antennas) :-)
