I was bored and on Google Maps last week when I noticed that it still had the old rail line through downtown Langley (before it was routed near the Langley Bypass.) They have since fixed this. It got me thinking, and I grabbed my camera.
It appears that the old line between 192nd and 200th street is till owned by BC Hydro.

Also, Michaud Crescent is so wide that it could accommodate light rail, cars, and parking.

Michaud Crescent ends at the Langley Mall which has an over-sized parking lot. What a great place for a station.

From there the LRT could go back up Glover Road and connect back to the
"mainline."
