In the 1960s and 1970s Southwood was home to the Corral Drive-in movie theatre. The drive-in closed to make way for Calgary Transit's Anderson Station shops and garage. TransitIn addition to the C-train, several bus routes run through Southwood. Most run along Southland Drive from other communities with the purpose of allowing passengers to transfer from a bus to the C-train at Southland Station. Ironically, Route 3 (Elbow Drive / Sandstone),[7] which travels along Elbow Drive, in both North and South directions, does not stop at either C-train station in Southwood. Passengers wishing to transfer from Bus #3 to the C-train must do so at Heritage Station in the community of Haysboro. See also
