Nelson’s electric streetcars first started running<br />

in 1899. The line was only five miles long and<br />

could boast only three cars, but it served the<br />

city faithfully for 50 years. After the Second<br />

World War, the electric tramway service<br />

was replaced by buses.<br />

“on track” started to become a reality. The car<br />

made its second debut in 1992, carrying over<br />

20,000 people in four months. Today there are<br />

over 70 volunteers who look after all aspects of<br />

the operation and new members are always welcome.<br />

These people make it possible for you to<br />

relive the past with a ride along the shore of the<br />

West Arm of Kootenay Lake from the Prestige<br />

Inn to Lakeside Park, two kilometres of relaxing<br />

nostalgia. The fares are modest and the ride is<br />

great fun.<br />

If you have a special event coming up, perhaps<br />

a wedding in Lakeside park, or a retirement or<br />

birthday party, you can reserve the streetcar for<br />

your guests to ride in style.<br />

The tramway runs every thirty minutes between<br />

11 am and 4:30 pm, seven days a week from<br />

May until October 14. www.nelsonstreetcar.org<br />

The Prestige<br />

Inn and<br />

the Lakeside<br />

Park stops are<br />

equipped with lifts<br />

to allow for wheelchairs<br />

to board<br />
