Summary: Silver Streak used Toronto for THREE cities, not two

Actually, it was better than that.  The opening shots around the
station really were Los Angeles.  But when the train pulled out of
the station, it was leaving Toronto's Union Station going east.
The Toronto skyline is quite different from LA's!

After that, Toronto's station doubled not only for Chicago as
stated, but also for Kansas City!  (KC was downstairs, Chicago
upstairs plus the tracks west of the station.)
