The city of Ottawa has unveiled a replica of the new light rail trains that will be rolling down the Confederation Line.

Within a few years, 34 of the Alstom Citadis trains will be carrying passengers along Ottawa's new Confederation Line.

Starting Jan. 30, residents are invited to visit the replica train in the Aberdeen Pavilion at Lansdowne Park, where it will sit until the end of March.

After that it will be used to train the operators who will one day drive it.
