Full black and white street-level view of a vintage streetcar on Danforth Avenue at an unnamed street intersection. The streetcar, dark in color, is a single-deck vehicle with an elevated roofline and numerous windows in a row. The windows appear to look out onto the street. The streetcar's number, "202", is visible on the side. Overhead electrical lines and support poles are clearly visible, running across the image. Trees are in the background, largely bare of leaves, suggesting a winter season. The street is paved with what appears to be asphalt with a lot of surface dirt. Tire tracks and rails are visible on the ground, angled to indicate the streetcar is turning. A date and location identifier is present in the lower left corner of the image: "MAR 22 1918 NEW DANFORTH CAR". The image has a slightly grainy, vintage photograph quality.
Toronto Civic Railways' streetcar on the new Danforth Line, 107 years ago today - March 22, 1918.
The TCR was dissolved into the TTC in 1921.
