Stations go Kennedy, Lawerence East, Ellesmere, Midland, Scarborough Centre,
then McCowan. The yard is about 100 metres east of McCowan. I'm not sure
what you're saying - are you trying to say the Scarborough RT was originally
refered to as "LRT"?


I'm fairly sure in some of my literature on it, it was refered to as LRT, in
comparison to the Subway.  Remember, this was before the Harbourfront line was
approved...

I know UTDC refered to it as you did, but I think the TTC refered to it as LRT,
so that they could squeek the budget past City Hall.

--have they replaced the rockets on LRT then?- Finally? Cannot complain,
the PCC's gave good service for 50 years then...

AFAIK, the harbourfront LRT never ran PCC's... because um, it opened in like
1991. That's not 50 years ago. :) To the best of my knowledge the
Harbourfront line, including the Union terminus and Queens Quay underground
station opened with CLRV's rather. I was wrong when I wrote ALRV before.

I thought that the Harbourfront line ran the rebuilt PCC's (4600's) for a while
(not original condition ones, with the hand openable upper window!)
