3 GEORGETOWN HERALD Thursday Sept Page For Old Trams Historic Link The automobile may currently be of tran sportation but just south of Eden Mills off Guelph Line Campbellville Road on a acre section of land a group of dedicated electricrailway enthusiasts are perpetuating this much older form of tran sport Canadas first operating electricrailway museum has been set up by the Ontario Electric Railway Historical Association An actual electric railway about onemile long has been built on which electric rail and street cars are operated under the celebrated name of County Radial Railway The radial a common provincial name for inter city electric lines or utilizes a portion of roadbed once part of the route of the Toronto Suburban Railway which ran between Guelph and Toronto Actually the current recreated line is located on Stop of that historic link between Guelph and Toronto which started service in 1917 and was abandoned in because of competition from cars and buses John of Brantford who usually can be found selling tickets in the old Grand Trunk Railway Rock wood station at the lines west ter minal said the association with a current membership of about started in 1953 to preserve electric railways which began todays passion for mobility RECALLS TRIPS Twenty years ago Toronto Transit Commission decided to dispose of Car 1326 once the largest unit in its historical collection Rather than see the beginning of the end for not only this unique car design and other cars being replaced across the province the group was formed to save them Bill Houston a member from Kitchener recalls trips he took on street cars from Toronto to Port He said Toronto now refurbishing and rebuilding its fleet Is the only city left In Canada with electric cars We get about people on the average each Sunday On holidays attendance is somewhat lower Mr Ogilvie said While many of cars are priceless funding comes from donations Visitors to the museum open Sundays and holidays from May to October can take a ride on period street cars back into time as they roll down the line The east terminal consists of a repair yard and carhouse loaded wilh cars in various stages of restoration and a gift shop full of railoriented items NUT A BUILDING Association members are quick to point out The essence of transportation is movement Therefore our museum is not a building full old vehicles preserved but dead rather it is a living railway to recreate the electric- railway experience no stationary exhibit con do The entire area is being rebuilt by unpaid volunteers Last summer a band of young people many of whom were members performed a great deal of rebuilding work under an Opportunities For Youth grant Electrification of Ihe line was started In 1964 and in May 1971 the first electric car ran on its own power The museum was opened to the public In June 1972 A grand total of passengers was carried in the first year of operation An independent organization a major coup by the group was purchase of the Rockwood station from Canadian National longrange plans will result in the structures complete restoration to Its original ap pearance There nave been so many firsts since the association was formed that they are Just too numerous to recount The first car No 1326 was the last survivor of convertible cars built by the Toronto Railway Co between 1903 and 1917 MANY DONATED Many of the radial and street cars were donated or purchased from TTC CNR and other systems The cars come from places widely separated such as Toronto Montreal London and Port Stanley donated by the province Hamilton New York City through TTC and the Niagara area Cars at the museum are powered by a trolley wire containing volts These same vehicles have been called Ihe unsung heroes of com mercial and social history simply because they have not been paid due respect for the they- played In helping this part of Ontario bet ween IBM when they replaced slowhorse cars until falling prey to the aggressive automobile Torontos population doubled within years after In troduction of electric cars and settlement radiated out from that mushrooming centre along electric car lines From Hamilton
