I just saw the movie "Brooklyn" (2015). There is an accurate interior streetcar scene that looks like the interior of a single-end Peter Witt, complete with curved rear bench seat. The credits note parts of the movie were filmed in Montreal, Canada. Can anyone provide further info?

Seashore Trolley Museum (Kennebunkport, ME) and the Shore Line Trolley Museum (East Haven, CT) both have Toronto Peter Witt cars. The Ontario Electric Rwy Historical Assn., operating the Halton County Radial Railway (Milton, Ontario) has several Toronto Witts and the Toronto Transportation Commission also has Witt No. 2766 that makes occasional forays onto Toronto's streets.

Thanks!
