  1. Great shot Bill! Brings back memories as I lived in Stratford, long after the days of steam and the tower existing on the street side. Awesome to see what once was…:)

  2. Brampton Sub?
    Did it extend from Stratford to Brampton?

  3. Grab an old timetable..

    Prior to 1964 some area subdivisions had different names. They re-organized after the Toronto diversion was created.

  4. Very nice shot Bill.
