Depending on where you drive and the current state of the streets, old rails occasionally show through pavement in Saskatoon. Ave H and 20th Street is one location that comes to mind from my days driving truck in the 1980s and early 90s.

In the late 60s, I rode the electric buses that replaced the trolleys. Then those buses were sold to Vancouver, where I got a chance to ride them again in 1986.

So true. I find it so disheartening seeing century old images of Canadian cities with street cars. I’ve even seen photos of small towns in New Brunswick that had street cars. Not only is it possible to do proper public transit nowadays, we could have had it all along.

In Winnipeg they just paved over the tracks. They still come across them when digging up roads

The BC Electric Railway company ran people and light cargo between stations from North Vancouver to Chilliwack, connecting to America at Blaine and Sumas. Passenger service to the Fraser Valley stopped in 1950.

Two words, there.
