VANCOUVER LIGHT RAIL
Portals

The Canada Line is underground for its first eight stations in Vancouver.  It heads out from Waterfront under Granville St., then curves to pass under False Creek in a deep-bore tunnel.   It then travels under Cambie St., with four of its subway stops below that artery.  The line surfaces along Cambie, as pictured here, just north of the Marine Dr. station, last stop outbound in Vancouver. 

The route then crosses the North Arm of the Fraser River.  After the first stop in Richmond a branch splits off for YVR Airport, while the other route goes generally south to Richmond-Brighouse.  There are three stations on each of those segments.
