Can you help with other Route Histories? Our sources do not detail the many short turn services operated on some of the longer routes during the 1950s and 1960s. Many of these routes also operated both local and express services at rush hours. Specific routes that we require help with are 7 BATHURST, 29 DUFFERIN, 32 EGLINTON WEST, 34 EGLINTON EAST, 41 KEELE, 59 NORTH YONGE and 86 SCARBOROUGH. If you can help, please contact Jeffrey Kay at a Society meeting, by e-mail at jeffrey_kay@hotmail.com, or regular mail care of the Toronto Transportation Society at
