Waterfront Streetcar
Metro's green and yellow waterfront streetcars run on a track along Alaskan Way and part of S. Main Street. The streetcars are powered by electricity. They were built in Australia for the Melborne and Metropolitan Tramways Board between 1925 and 1930. The cars are double end, double truck, and designed for two-person operation.
The waterfront streetcar makes 9 stops as it travels from Broad Street by Pier 70 to Fifth Avenue by the International District Station.
