This year’s I Love Transit Camp took campers between the ages of 8 and 12 years on a tour of SkyTrain Operations and Maintenance Centre,  Burnaby Transit Centre and had a visit from Transit Police! The day was jam packed with all things transit and our campers got an exclusive behind the scenes look at our facilities. Here’s a peek of what we got up to!
