Original Toronto Star caption: Passengers waited for streetcars on St. Clair Ave. W. While streetcars waited for rescue during the morning rushhour today. The streetcars were blocked on Bathurst St. when an axie seized on the first one in line. The TTC put buses on the route until the jam was cleared. The storm created more chaos on major highways.
