What a great video, I remember the PCCs on the Carlton line. Such great memories, and a wonderful history of a city that was.

Although I wasn’t a fan of the narration, which often doesn’t coincide with what we are looking at, the scenes shot are quite amazing and such smooth camera work. Bill did a great job!

I agree totally. The narration was overbearing and contained a few errors. I will say that the video was made in the pre-internet age. Bill listed all the fleet information for the trolleybuses, streetcars and subways which may have been appreciated at the time. Now that information can be googled in seconds by anyone interested.

Great video! Just wish there was some more interior subway footage apart from just the M1 scenes. Hopefully we can get some retro H1 and H2/3 interior videos soon…👌 Thanks for post bud! 👍😃
