The Toronto subway

IN TORONTO, Canada, the last street car and trailer line on the Continent has been replaced by a modern subway system thoroughly integrated with surface transfer lines. Since cars, shops, and track were entirely new, all of the modern features and methods of other systems were studied and adopted where practical. The cars, as well as signals and part of the power supply, telephone system, and cables were purchased in the United Kindgom. Operation of the first few months has already justified the wisdom and courage of those who conceived, planned, and built the system.
