Toronto streetcar No. 1344 - a photo on Flickriver

            An old photograph of Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) streetcar No. 1344 (at the Russell Carhouse?), showing 'Bathurst - Wychwood' destination blinds. I am afraid that I know very little about Canadian tramways.

The photo reverse is annotated with the photographer (and/or negative owner) initials 'ADP', and with the date 22-4-48. ADP are the initials of the well known transport photographer A. D. Packer.

This was one of a batch of 25 'one man operated - OMO' cars built by the previous operator (Toronto Railway Company (TRC)) in 1910/11 with a front entrance and treadle operated rear exit. The last of these cars were withdrawn from service in 1951.

If there are any errors in the above description please let me know. Thanks.

📷  Any photograph I post on Flickr is an original in my possession, nothing is ever copied/downloaded from another location.  📷
