Streetcar in time for 2010

The City of Vancouver has a streetcar trial which they plan to be in trial operation by early 2009 running from the Olympic Village through to Granville Island on the Southern shores of False Creek (Phase 0 on image below).
In time it is hoped that this will become a permanent mode of transport with travel through to Science World. Some dream of the service continuing through to the Roundhouse in Yaletown & Gastown with an eventual extension to Stanley Park though the latter is a definite long-shot at this point.

The streetcar will be a great 2010 bonus for persons renting homes along the SEFC corridor.
