This shot was mislabeled by this Library and Archives Canada photograph as Toronto Railway Company streetcar #325. John Bromley corrects the record, pointing out that it's actually #326. In his words, "TRC cars used even numbers for closed cars and odd numbers for open cars, a well-known tradition. TTC used a variation by saving odd numbers for un-motored trailers. The tradition was not eliminated until the PCCs came in 1938." The shot was originally taken in 1895. Car #326, a compatriot of #327, never served on the TTC.
