New Olympic Line Streetcar services, running between the 'Olympic Village' Canada Lines Station and Granville Island.
The new system will run 'free' for two months, through to the end of the Olympics. It runs from 6:30 am - 12:30 am (18 hours), with 'Bombardier' streetcars arriving every 6 to 10 minutes.
The streetcars (2 of them) are on loan from Belgium and are scheduled to be returned after the trial run.

Vancouver's original streetcar services was retired in 1958.
There is a chance the Vancouver's city will bring a permanent system after the Olympic Games.

It rides like a Skytrain/Canada Line. Smooth and fast, too.
The only difference: Streetcar got a driver.
I really hope that they will bring the streetcars back in Vancouver.
