The episode starts with the mosaic that is transport operations in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area, beginning with a look at the Toronto Transit Commission's streetcar network. The Golden Horseshoe is known for its variety of bus operators, from MiWay in Mississauga to the Hamilton Street Railway, the latter carrying the legacy of its late tram network. At Union Station, GO, UP Express, VIA, and Amtrak trains shuffle passengers to and fro'. GO Transit is then briefly chronicled from its origins in 1967. Back in Toronto, Roundhouse Park near the CN Tower, which includes a Hawker Siddeley single-decker GO coach, provides a glimpse of Ontario railway history. Out in the open, VIA trains race along the Windsor-Quebec City corridor with CN and CPKC freight trains. The segment focuses on the area between Cobourg and Belleville, where CN's Kingston Subdivision and CP's Belleville Subdivision run parallel, before viewing CN action at Kingston. In the capital Ottawa, the two O-Train lines use unique equipment from the notorious Alstom Citadis Spirit to the universal Stadler FLIRT. Meanwhile in the Regional Municipality of Waterloo, Grand River Transit's ION connects the cities of Kingston and Waterloo using Bombardier Flexity Freedom LRVs. Over in the industrial port city of Hamilton, trains from CN and CP serve various industries. Shunting on both lines is showcased, as well as mainline freight traffic in and around all three major yards and Bayview Junction (as seen from all three points of the wye), and boat and ship traffic around the port. Pearson Airport in Mississauga is Canada's busiest airport, and airliners of all kinds, from WestJet Dash 8s to Lufthansa 747s, take off and land by the minute. Up north, Ontario Northland is one of the more remote railways in North America, connecting isolated settlements with freight and passenger operations. Back in the Golden Horseshoe, we continue with the likes of the Guelph Junction, Huron Central, Trillium, and Ontario Southland Railways, before we conclude our tour of Ontario with the Toronto Zoo's unique Zoomobile, African Lion Safari's tour buses and “Nature Boy” Scenic Railway, and five tourist railways: the South Simcoe Railway, Waterloo Central Railway, the late York-Durham Heritage Railway, Port Stanley Terminal Rail, and Algoma Central.
