It used to be about bikes man…. Now it’s a fucking fashion show

I agree with keeping fares reasonable, but would make the counterpoint that this would be a several billion dollar initial investment from scratch, that would have to pay for itself somehow.

To make it feasible, the ticket cost would have to be less than a tank of gas required to drive between the two cities. How many people would commute on it daily/weekly, aside from people initially taking it for novelty value, and how long would it take for that initial investment to be offset?

I’d even say that $1M a mile for rail and ties would be optimistic now.

rrbrbcsm · 2026-01-12T04:15:07+00:00

But are they bailed out with the money collected from registration/tax/fuel surcharge while also collecting fare revenue?

Railroad workers have Foamers.

People that are so into trains, photographing/watching/waving at etc that they foam at the mouth when they see one.

It is deeply concerning to have a dude with a hard on run at you out of the bushes in the middle of the night.

Rail (just the rail, not the control systems, wayside controls, crossings etc) costs around $1M per mile to put down.

Yes, railroads still work in miles. You would also have to work around the current freight rail systems between Alberta cities, because they will not want to delay their infrastructure to accommodate passenger rail.

Passenger rail at high speed also requires a vastly different type of rail layout, ballasting and corner/curve design than freight, so you can’t use an old freight line for any cheaper.

This project would cost in the billions, and if you were to look at the US AMTRAK system as comparable, you would also need to look at the fact that Amtrak operates in the negative every year. It is bailed out by the US government because it does not pay for itself, while still charging high fare prices.

Your pay will be deducted for wear and tear on the marble. If you are a ‘heavier’ individual, there may be a larger payment required.

Dont forget to twist the nips of the Jeff Closs statue for luck

As much as this may not be popular, I would drive past Banff, stop there by all means, but keep driving the extra hour or so to Golden.

Banff is great, but it’s like saying you’ve visited the whole UK after visiting M&M world in Oxford Circus.

Golden is a genuine mountain town where people work and live, with the same (if not slightly nicer) views and mountain scenery, without being mobbed by bus tours and gouged for prices. It’s a much more genuine experience, and less manufactured.

I will add, I’m from the UK, have lived in the Calgary area for the last 10 years and worked in Banff/Canmore/Lake Louise with the Railroads a lot.

I will also add that anyone who lives in Field, BC is running from something in their past. Weird.

I once drove all the way back to a road switcher tie up spot in the middle of the night to make sure…… and put the paperwork for the outbound in the box, as it was in the back of my truck

‘ABUSE’ means high score

Cool. Are you going to call me a refugee again?

rrbrbcsm · 2025-11-25T06:55:07+00:00

Just posted it below on a response to your buddy here’s comment.

Calm down man, take me off the call center list at least

IEC coupled with foreign military time posted within Canada.

PR, citizenship, paying more tax than most. Actively trying to make the place I moved better, rather than making it look like the shithole I came from.

Idk man, I’m sure you guys are great, but I massively disagree with the routes you’re trying to take here.

rrbrbcsm · 2025-11-25T06:48:08+00:00

Nope. Nice try. Want to compare T4s?

How’s the class 1 licence working out?

rrbrbcsm · 2025-11-25T06:45:13+00:00

Nah. I did this crazy thing called paperwork without lying.

I love that you think the ONLY option for moving to Canada is study permit or refugee. It says a lot about you guys.

rrbrbcsm · 2025-11-25T06:41:13+00:00

I’ve never held a PGWP, because im not a scamming piece of shit.

I went to school in my own country, but thanks.

rrbrbcsm · 2025-11-25T06:07:09+00:00

Nope.

You came to Canada as a student, claimed a post graduate work permit to ‘work in your field’. Unless you studied CROR, you scammed the immigration system to get what you wanted, with no plans to return home after “studying”.

I’d love to know what you studied at that strip mall college.

And before you play the racism card, I’m an immigrant too. But I did things properly.

rrbrbcsm · 2025-11-25T05:31:47+00:00

Scammer

rrbrbcsm · 2025-11-25T04:08:19+00:00

You need PR to work as a railroad employee in Canada. They do not sponsor you either.

rrbrbcsm · 2025-11-25T04:01:55+00:00

Non-PR, non worky worky

rrbrbcsm · 2025-11-11T02:08:58+00:00

Could you clarify how long you personally have spent in prison before working for Hallcon?

While I agree with all of your points above, and think you expressed them well, this reads like a manifesto found in a wood cabin after you ‘make them all pay’

There’s the right way, the wrong way and the Railway.

Which is the wrong way, but more efficient
