Kingston City Coach operated the transit system in the city of Kingston, Ontario between 1930 and June 30, 1962.
Kingston City Coach was a subsidiary of Colonial Coach Lines.
Bus service started in 1930 after a fire destroyed the car barns of the Kingston, Portsmouth, and Cataraqui Electric Railway. Operations continued until 1962, when the city decided to take over the system, renaming it the Kingston Public Transit System.

Famous quotes containing the words city and/or coach:
“But what we strive to gratify, though we may call it a distant hope, is an immediate desire; the future estate for which men drudge up city alleys exists already in their imagination and love.”

“Oh! joyous hearts! enfired with holy flame!
Is speech thus tasseled with praise?
Will not your inward fire of joy contain:
That it in open flames doth blaze?
For in Christ’s coach saints sweetly sing,
As they to glory ride therein.”
—Edward Taylor (1645–1729)
