Toronto and Mimico Electric Railway and Light Company was established in November 1890, and was renamed as the Toronto and Mimico Railway Company in 1903. It operated a radial line from Mimico to Port Credit, west of Toronto, Canada.
In 1904, the Toronto and York Radial Railway, a subsidiary of the Toronto Railway Company, acquired the company and the line became the T&YRR's Mimico Division.[1]
In 1927, the Toronto Transportation Commission acquired the Mimico Line and converted its track from standard to Toronto gauge. The TTC double-tracked the line to Long Branch and named that portion as the Lakeshore streetcar line. The portion beyond Long Branch to Port Credit was left as single track until its closure on February 9, 1935.[2]
