Secret art, manoeuvring public vehicle across the pond (9)

I believe the answer is:

streetcar

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'public vehicle across the pond' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'secret art manoeuvring' is the wordplay.
'manoeuvring' is an anagram indicator.
'secret'+'art'='secretart'
'secretart' anagrammed gives 'STREETCAR'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for streetcar that I've seen before include "North American name for a tram" , ""Desire" was one" , "Desire, perhaps" , "public transport?" , "US tram (named Desire?)" .)
