F1 SIDE TRAIL, WAITING ROOM, TORONTO RADIAL
LINE, east side of Yonge St. at entrance to
Cricklewood Park. Stop 17 housed passengers waiting for the
electric radial streetcar which would take them north to Richmond
Hill. Established by the Toronto and York Railway Company in 1896,
the Line was in operation until 1948. This shelter, for decades
located at the 14th hole of the Thornhill Country Club, has been
moved and refurbished as a joint project of the Lions' Club of
Thornhill and SPOHT. (See Plaque) |
