The 503 Kingston Rd is an east-west streetcar route in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, operated by the Toronto Transit Commission. The 503 Kingston Rd travels on a route to the downtown financial district from the Bingham Loop and operates as a rush hour service only. The route shares much of its track with the 504 King and the 502 Downtowner.

[edit] Route

Starting at Victoria Park Avenue, it runs southwest on Kingston Road then turns west along Queen Street at the bridge over the Don River. It then turns southwest going along King Street and continues west to Church Street. It then goes south again to Wellington Street where it continues west to York Street. It then turns north and returns east along King Street.

Despite being named for Kingston Road, it does not span Kingston Road entirely, thus, it does not extend into Scarborough, just as other streetcar lines.
