First streetcar in toronto. During the first forty years of the streetcar in the city, a variety of private companies operated several dozen lines. They roll right through the streets, stop often like buses 🚌, and make it super easy to get around downtown and the waterfront 🌆. The single-ended streetcars require track loops in order to reverse direction. The nearest Streetcar stations to East Liberty St at Lynn Williams St East Side in Toronto are King St West at Sudbury St and King St West at Shaw St. 60 years ago today, February 25, 1966 the Bloor-Danforth line opened for service in Toronto. The Toronto streetcar system is a network of eleven streetcar routes in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, operated by the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC). In 2025, the system had a total of 800,212,000 boardings. It is the third busiest light-rail system in North America. Much of the streetcar route network dates from the second half of the 19th century Established as the Toronto Transportation Commission in 1921, the TTC owns and operates five rapid transit lines with 109 stations, more than 150 bus routes, and nine streetcar lines.
