GO Transit trains
Trains de GO Transit

A division of the Ontario Government agency Metrolinx, GO Transit opened its first line in 1967. Since then, it has evolved to form an extensive commuter network of trains and buses connecting people in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area, with routes extending to communities across the Greater Golden Horseshoe. GO’s distinctive green and white trains and buses serve a population of more than seven million people across more than 4,247 square miles (11,000 square km), and the combined rail and bus system carries approximately 68 million passengers annually.

This photograph is from the Archives of Ontario Lenscape Incorporated client records (series F 4593-1), which document project sites for a number of Lenscape’s clients. Lenscape was a Toronto-based photography firm founded in 1981 by Elizabeth Jones and Pedro Ho to provide photography and presentation services to architectural firms and construction companies. This photograph is an example of a contact sheet—a positive print of all the negative images from a roll of film, typically used for proofing purposes. This sheet was perhaps used to determine promotional images for GO’s services.

Division de Metrolinx, organisme du gouvernement de l’Ontario, le Réseau GO a mis en service sa première ligne en 1967. Depuis cette date, il a évolué pour devenir un vaste réseau de trains et d’autobus de banlieue desservant les habitants de la région du Grand Toronto et de Hamilton, avec des lignes raccordant des collectivités de la région élargie du Golden Horseshoe. Les trains et les autobus d’un vert et d’un blanc si particuliers du GO desservent une population de plus de 7 millions de personnes sur une aire de plus de 11 000 kilomètres carrés et son réseau de voies ferrées et de lignes d’autobus transporte approximativement 68 millions de passagers par année.

Cette photographie est tirée des dossiers de clients de Lenscape Incorporated (série F 4593-1) aux Archives publiques de l’Ontario, qui documentent des sites de projet pour plusieurs clients de Lenscape. Lenscape était une entreprise photographique de Toronto, fondée en 1981 par Elizabeth Jones et Pedro Ho afin d’offrir des services de photographie et de présentation à des cabinets d’architectes et à des entreprises de construction. Cette photographie est un exemple de planche contact ‒ une épreuve positive de toutes les images négatives d’une bobine de pellicule, utilisée normalement pour les besoins du tirage d’épreuves. Cette planche a peut-être servi à choisir des images promotionnelles pour les services du Réseau GO.
