Original Toronto Star caption: It's a long walk along the slowly-moving assembly line at the Oshawa South plant of General Motors; where the vast; linked buildings cover 165 acres. To save time getting from one place to another; workers ride bicycles along controlled pathways. The company experimented first with golf carts but found the bikes more flexible.
