Edmonton Radial Railway Society

Edmonton Radial Railway Society, Heritage streetcar system in Edmonton, Canada

The Edmonton Radial Railway Society runs two heritage streetcar operations: a 1 km double-tracked line inside Fort Edmonton Park, with stops on 1905 and 1920 streets and turning loops at each end, and the High Level Bridge Streetcar from Whyte Avenue to Jasper Plaza, with three intermediate stops. Volunteers restore and maintain the cars, and a replica of the south side streetcar barn houses the workshop.

The society was founded in 1980 to preserve streetcars that served the city from 1908 to 1951. It rescued an important chapter of the city's transportation history from being lost.

The society lets visitors experience how people once traveled by riding in restored streetcars and learning from guided tours. This connection to the past helps people understand the role transportation played in shaping the city.

The High Level Bridge Streetcar runs between the Victoria Day weekend in May and Thanksgiving weekend in October, from Whyte Avenue in Old Strathcona to Jasper Plaza downtown, with three intermediate stops. The Fort Edmonton Park line is a double-tracked 1 km route with stops on 1905 and 1920 streets and turning loops at both ends. During summer festivals such as the Fringe, service is extended for larger crowds.

Streetcar #1, built for the 1908 opening of the Edmonton Radial Railway, was the only car kept after electric service ended in 1951. Volunteers restored it and in 2008 it stood at the centre of Churchill Square for the centenary of public transit in Edmonton.
