Lonely Planet review for Downtown Historic Railway

This beautifully restored, clackety old streetcar hits the ancient tracks from Granville Island to Science World during a smile-inducing 15-minute journey. The railway used to be part of the Vancouver tramcar system, and today it’s still operated by the city’s Engineering Services department –you’ll see retired uniformed volunteers, who used to work on the old cars when they were in full service, staffing the line.
