Toronto Transit Commission 5336-5499 were Hawker Siddeley Canada H1 subway cars built in 1965-66. They are aluminum-bodied cars, classified as RT-75 (Rapid Transit, 75' long) by their builder, but known as H1's by the TTC. The H1's were part of a 200 car order, along with the M1 cars from competitor Montreal Locomotive Works, for combined Bloor-Danforth-University line services. They were delivered between May 1965 and January 1966.

The H1 series were the first cars to be controlled by way of a single controller for acceleration and braking.

Cars 5336 and 5337 were delivered by railway flatcar via the CN Toronto Belt Line branch to the TTC's Davisville Shops. They were the only two H1 cars delivered to Davisville, as all future H1 deliveries (and subsequent car orders) would be delivered to the TTC's Greenwood Shops via flatcar.

Deliveries of the T1 subway cars brought about the retirement of the H1 and M1 cars. Most were retired between 1997 and 1999, with the last 12 H1's (two trains) being retired on November 29th 1999. The the last of the cars were removed from the property in 2000, with the exception of those converted for work train service.

Fleet numbers from this retired series were reused for the new Bombardier Toronto Rocket subway cars.
