🚋 All aboard! Steveston’s newest tram just rolled in, a ​moving diorama built by the talented youth of Metro Vancouver youth Model Rail.

Winding through farmland and into the city, the Steveston Tram once connected workers, families, and visitors from Steveston to other parts of Richmond, Vancouver, and beyond.
