She did insist on spending the week telling me that &#8220;we are going to see the choo choos&#8221; but that was okay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The weather was not great but there isn&#8217;t much exposure to the outdoors and 3 streetcars were running, it is possible to ride continuously for as long as you like but there is a large collection of vintage equipment including the original Toronto Subway car (called Gloucester) and the second series (called Montreal). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What is great about visiting is that you will find a mix of transit enthusiasts; and kids.  Kids can&#8217;t resist streetcars and you will find that quite a lot of fun to see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Click on the photo below for my photos:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/1drv.ms\/u\/s!Au3VUupWkxOXjb9jjdbbT2VI8GTHoQ?e=Uz945O\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"3439\" height=\"2812\" src=\"https:\/\/onedrive.live.com\/embed?resid=97139356ea52d5ed%21221110&amp;authkey=%21AECdY-l-MuI5FVo&amp;width=3439&amp;height=2812\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And click below for Mumtaz&#8217;s photos:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/1drv.ms\/u\/s!Au3VUupWkxOXjb9k9gxVw4oLlQGO2w?e=p5xB5a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"3057\" height=\"3066\" src=\"https:\/\/onedrive.live.com\/embed?resid=97139356ea52d5ed%21221176&amp;authkey=%21AGQrqh-mGEO_Xhs&amp;width=3057&amp;height=3066\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For those that are not familiar with this facility along Guelph Line in Milton, here is a link to Wikipedia: Halton County Radial Railway &#8211; Wikipedia and here is a link to their web site:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[314,317,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3959","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-314","category-halton-county","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/abelfamily.ca\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3959","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/abelfamily.ca\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/abelfamily.ca\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/abelfamily.ca\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/abelfamily.ca\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3959"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/abelfamily.ca\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3959\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4511,"href":"https:\/\/abelfamily.ca\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3959\/revisions\/4511"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/abelfamily.ca\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3959"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/abelfamily.ca\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3959"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/abelfamily.ca\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3959"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
