The TTC has resumed streetcar service on Queen Street after a mysterious track issue put two dozen streetcars out of order earlier this week. A spokesperson for the TTC tweeted Saturday morning that Queen Street was safe, that routine track work likely resolved the cause and that nothing out of the ordinary was found. On Wednesday, the TTC pulled streetcars from Queen after 25 of the vehicles were found to have damage to their emergency braking systems. Our streetcar crews … are all a bit perplexed as to what caused this,” TTC spokesperson Stuart Green previously told the Star. The TTC typically operates 35 of the new-model Bombardier streetcars on the 501 route.
