"This is a colorful photo-story of the construction of the Niagara-Toronto 80-mile natural gas pipe line in the summer and fall of 1954 - first section of the Trans-Canada Pipe Line natural gas pipeline system to be completed and placed in operation. Highlights include crossing over the Niagara River and the Welland Canal. The film will be of special interest to those along the main route of the Trans-Canada Pipe Line project from the Alberta-Saskatchewan boundary eastward. Comes with English or French commentary."
