Wilfred Eben Pinkerton Duncan[1] (1897 – 28 January 1977) was an important figure in the early period of the Toronto Transit Commission's history.
He emigrated to Canada and worked from 1910 to 1914 in the construction department of the Canadian Pacific Railway.
Between 1915 and 1919 he served overseas in the Great War with the Canadian Expeditionary Force and the Royal Engineers, attaining the rank of Major.
Duncan retired in 1961 but remained active as a General Consultant to the TTC until the opening of the University Subway in 1963.
[4] The Duncan Shops, a heavy bus maintenance facility at the TTC's Hillcrest Complex, is named in his honour.
