Hiking

Actually a train station, but the last passenger train ran in 1979. Now a subway terminus, shipping pier and ferry port - there's always something going on. The contrast to the still existing tracks and the many homeless people is a bit harsh. There has been an official camp in Waterfront Park since April 2023, so these people have to stay somewhere.

Few train services, but a traffic hub nonetheless. Enjoy the ferry ride to North Vancouver or hop on the subway to enjoy the driver's view. It runs automatically 😉

From 1914 until the late 1970s, Waterfront Station was the main station of the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) in Vancouver. It served as terminus for trains from Toronto and Montreal. The neoclassical-style building on Burrard Inlet is now a transit hub for Vancouver's commuter rail network.
