Streetcars in Calgary

Local historian Jay Maudsley traces the rise and fall of Calgary's original streetcar network, from the one-mile Stampede shuttle line that opened in 1909 to a system that once stretched from Ogden to Bowness. Part of Historic Calgary Week, this talk digs into how the system evolved, what led to its demise, and how it still shapes the city today. Doors open 15 minutes before the presentation.
