TTC streetcars set to roll in Easter parade

The TTC’s streetcar fleet, vintage and modern, will join the annual Toronto Beaches Easter Parade this Sun., Apr. 16 at 2 p.m.

The parade runs along Queen St. E. from Nursewood Rd. to Woodbine Ave.

One of the TTC’s newest accessible streetcars will join a refurbished ALRV and a CLRV streetcar, along with the historic Peter Witt streetcar, which served Toronto residents from 1921 until 1963, and the classic PCC streetcar that was the backbone of the TTC’s streetcar fleet from 1938 until 1995.

During the parade, the 501 Queen streetcar route will turn back at Kingston Rd. starting at 1 p.m. The 64 Main and 92 Woodbine South buses will also be on diversion for the duration of the parade. See ttc.ca for more details.

Regular service will resume at 5 p.m.
