i remember the time where i rode 7941 on the 15 evans

Buddy in the back of the streetcar at 14:49 is flipping off the camera

Great video but the amount of ads made it unwatchable

Thank you for posting this wonderful footage.

Great to see my hometown of El Paso, TX in the video. Had no idea they were purchased used from San Diego. I remember them when I was a kid. They ran until 1974 and they resumed in the downtown/UTEP area a few years ago.

I ❤the PCC cars

This was before digital technology, unfortunately it's so blurry

At 2:02 -- there's 8203 (now 518203). Today part of the Seashore Trolley Museum in Kennebunkport, ME.

This was a long one but love the history. Thank you.

Terrific-I remember when the Lake-Dan Ryan(now Red Line)opened in September 1969(I rode it)CTA Chicago Transit Authority Lake-Dan Ryan Rapod Transit Line

I have the original version of this

Amazing!!!!

Good job! Any railway videos shot in Sault Ste. Marie?

I purchased the first 4 volumes of Railway Recollections back in the 1990's on original VHS format. I recently watched volume 5 on KZbin, a pleasant surprise (I didn't know a vol. 5 existed!) . Glad to see these films will get a wider audience via KZbin. They're now a part of Southern Ontario railroad history.

Really enjoyed this. Thanks.

two hours of steam era? awwwwwwww ya! :)

As a born and raised Baltimorean, I still miss our old PCC streetcars. I lived along one line as a young child and was 13 when the last two lines were converted to bus routes. I watched the cars being pulled out of the Irvington Carhouse to be hauled away as scrap in the Summer of 1964. Evidence of where they ran still exists in the form of rails poking up through worn down asphalt on city streets and power poles that served dual purposes still serving their other purpose - traffic lights, guy wire supports, or simply holding up a traffic sign.

It's sad what toronto has become

I used to drive along that stretch of hwy 2 between Trenton and Cobourg several times a week, I have a feeling not much has changed in the rivalry between CP and CN, you can still see freights neck and neck tooling along, just that there is twice as many on the CN line. I live near Port Hope now and for every train on the CP trestle you can count 3 on the CN trestle including Via units. There used to be stories from when the old CPR north mainline through Glen Tay Kaladar, Tweed Havelock and Peterborough on to Toronto was still carrying passengers, the CPR would pull out of Ottawa and the CNR would too at the same time and it was a race, go like hell and the trains would pull into Union Station minutes apart with shell shocked ptsd passengers from the rough breakneck ride. Sometimes CPR won the race, sometimes CNR.

All the branch lines near me were abandoned and track removed all through the late 80's into the 90's. By 95 it was all gone, nothing left but the trunk line along the Lake Ontario hwy 401 corridor. All trucks now. Just north of me the CP Havelock sub still lingers on at 10 mph with only Unimin and IKO as paying customers, most of the spurs and sidings around PTBO have been torn up, just the mainline left dead ending east of Havelock. I give it another decade at most...

Breng back the RT😢

Nice horn on cp 400692

Miss the old train Comment please

I’m from Canada from Ontario and I love the TTC I am from Guelph Soon to be a Mississauga resident Do you guys have any videos of Mississauga transit buses in the 1990s?

Enjoyed your video! Thanks Nigel and Coley

what if the surviving locomotives be restored and carry Excursions.

The plates and registration/ownership were also transferred from the original 7410 to 7510.

Yeah, walk across the street to the Four Seasons.

80s or 90s? Title and description confuses me. I'm assuming 90s.

I remember these types of buses. Air-conditioning meant opening a window. Brings back a lot of memories. This was the time air-conditioned buses were starting to come out.

When are you gonna post Oshawa. Whitby. Ajax. & Pickering on here?

yay M Series, thank you !

When Toronto was the best place to live. Miss that city ❤

Going self driving robot bus in future Brampton transit by 2050

So you literally ordered the most off-the-wall non-original items... then they were just "OK". C'mon. You can't do a review and not get an original Triple-O burger and fries...

i currently live near yonge/eglinton, and remember back to circa 1980 working at the 'PizzaPizza' call centre; i tried to search what the exact address was, evening emailing their head office, to no avail; i only lasted a few weeks because i refused to follow their instructions to ask customers after the pizza order was complete "would you like any soft drinks or cigarettes?"; i refused to mention 'cigarettes'; they fired me...i am sure i pass the building every day but can't for the life of me remember where exactly it was; maybe it was knocked down...

I’m disappointed that I never had the chance to ride these Orion IVs during any of my trips to Niagara Falls between 1999 and 2012. I wonder if any still exist somewhere, even if just at a scrapyard…

I LOVE MIDLAND i know all these stores

The first bus is the Orion IV right? Such a cool bus with a recognizable bloodline

Was part of this also filmed at the New York side of Niagara Falls? Because I don't recall seeing a Grumman 870 anywhere in Canada

The 1990s don't seem that long ago yet so much has changed and yet also stayed the same.

the absence of the standees' strip fenestration on these buses of the TTC's was one of dozens of dozens of aspects around Ton o' rot that customarily suppress that burg to suburban stature 💡💡💡

What a neat compilation of vintage film. Thanks for sharing this. James.

If only people knew what was to come 35 years later! What a nightmare!

Hi

Is it possible to recreate Kodachrome?
