We all have spare tires for our cars and the TTC has spare wheels for the streetcars. These will be refurbished and used again on the different models of cars.
A person who has a detailed interest in the finer points of tram and train construction is known as a 'rivet counter'. I am looking forward to seeing the compressor motor.

..they should be able to be rebuilt over and over again.
I actually recently watched a tv program about this work.
That's something I hadn't thought about but it makes sense. They look very heavy.
Interesting to see them like this.
Huh! Something one doesn’t think about.
Street cars are designed to go many miles, but the wheels do wear and need maintenance. Your photo tells an interesting story.
Often, a look behind the scenes tell us a story we never even knew. Thanks for sharing.
Very cool thank you
These wheels look enormous and industrial

At least you don't have to pump them up.
Not me, I don't own a car, but I have a few bikes. Good that they will be used again.
As long as they are safe to use then it's good to reuse them. Im all for this.
