Hamilton Transit History

Canadian Car & Foundry CD-36A (HSR #301-310)

Built in 1951, 10 CD-36As were delivered to the HSR. All of these buses were still in service when the HSR was sold to the City of Hamilton in 1959, but were retired before 1972.

Some of the dates for these photos are unknown, and the locations are often just a guess. If you know either date or location, email me!
