FORMER GUELPH RADIAL RAILWAY CARSHOP

The three photos on this page show the former Guelph Radial Railway carshop which still stands at 371 Waterloo Avenue in Guelph.

It appears that there were only two tracks through the building in the second photo while the end of the building in the lower photo clearly indicates that there were three doorways for cars to enter and exit. Two of the doors were later closed in which may have been done at the time the building was converted to a bus garage.

With the end of streetcar service, the buildings were used to store and repair the silver roofed cream and red buses of the Guelph Transportation Commission until a new larger garage was built in the early 1970's. Platinum Concepts now occupies a portion of one of the buildings.
