Bingham Loop
Bingham Loop is a station and turning loop at the eastern terminus of the 502 Downtowner and 503 Kingston Rd streetcar lines of the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC). It lies between Victoria Park Avenue and Bingham Avenue, just north of Kingston Road in Toronto.
Streetcars loop anticlockwise from Victoria Park Avenue and stop on the south side of the platform, while buses enter in the other direction from Bingham Avenue and stop on the north side. The island platform is covered by a one-piece long canopy. A small brick building provides facilities for TTC staff.
==History==
The private Toronto and Scarboro' Electric Railway, Light and Power Company had operated a single track suburban radial line along Kingston Road to West Hill. When the TTC assumed the route between Queen Street and Victoria Park in 1922, they double tracked the line and built the return loop at Bingham. The TTC extended the double track east to Birchmount Loop in 1928. The Bingham Loop was rebuilt in 1954, with one track removed to accommodate buses as it is today, and streetcar service east of Victoria Park was discontinued.
The tracks at the loop and along Kingston Road were replaced in 2013. The remnants of the old trackage were removed, including a feature which allowed streetcars exiting from Bingham Avenue to turn east on Kingston Road and reenter the loop.〔
