How cool is that?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt all started in 1951, when the Toronto Transit Commission contracted the Gloucester Railway Carriage and Wagon Company in the UK to build the cars for Canada’s first subway. The original line ran under Yonge Street from Union Station in the south to Eglinton Avenue in the north, opening on March 30th, 1954. This line is still in service today as the southern half of TTC’s Line 1. These unique rapid transit cars featured bold red paint with yellow stripes both above and below the large picture windows.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hobby Outpost","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55046303514915,"sku":"RAP206502","price":449.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/6223\/8499\/files\/206002_2.jpg?v=1778091068","url":"https:\/\/hobbyoutpost.com\/products\/rapido-206502-ho-ttc-gloucester-subway-train-esu-loksound-dc-dcc-sound-a-b-set-1-includes-5034-5035","provider":"Hobby Outpost","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
