When I visited the open house at the TTC yards a few weeks ago they took us through all the buildings and showed us all of the wonderful machinery they have for keeping out streetcars, buses, and subways rolling. This machine was really fascinating as it used large strong rollers to bend straight streetcar rails into nice curves for the cars to turn corners. You can see one of the bent ones off to the right.

That's something I would not have thought of.
Done without heat. Most interesting.
Very interesting!
Isn't that cool!
I would have thought they’d need heat to do that, but it doesn’t look like it.
Wow, the things we never think of. It's incredible that someone came up with the idea to create a machine that could do this type of work. Thanks for sharing, Pat.
Strong and nice work.
That's pretty incredible. It would be interesting to see it working.
