From 18 storeys up, I often gaze out my window, eastward toward Mississauga Valley. Out there, in a past that I’m too young to recall, trolleys of the TSR once traveled. Today, only the faintest traces of this old electric interurban ‘radial’ line remain.
From the corner of Keele and Dundas to a point just west of Etobicoke Creek, the route of the Toronto Suburban’s Guelph Division is still well defined. The route is, in fact, Dundas Street West. This major artery has been widened twice since 1931, thus removing all evidence of the rails and suspension towers that once lay along what are now the westbound lanes of the street.
