Abstract
The construction of Canada´s first subway is scheduled for completion in the City of Toronto by the end of 1953. Since there were no standards to be continued, full advantage was taken of new methods and materials. A brief description is given of much of the equipment, particularly the cars which will be 130 in number and of the lightweight Presidents´ Conference Committee(PCC) type.
