It's not just humans that love our museum!

Trevor Parkins-Sciberras always liked riding the TTC, but it wasn’t until 2014, when he discovered the Halton County Radial Railway – Ontario’s streetcar museum – that he fell in love.

Lake Erie & Northern Railway (LE&N) interurban #797 in Preston, Ontario, circa 1950.

We have LE&N #797 preserved and on display at our museum, so come on out and see it for yourself!

TTC snow-sweeper S-40 was turning north from Harbord St. onto Spadina Ave. in downtown Toronto during the winter of 1965.

Today TTC snow sweeper S-37 is preserved at our museum and is still operational!
