@cbcvancouver: Twelve years after passenger train service ended on Vancouver Island, the provincial government has announced more consultation over its future. The B.C. government says it will spend $18 million for planning along the Island rail corridor. As Justin McElroy explains, it comes a day before a court-ordered deadline for the federal and provincial governments to declare their intentions for the line. #train #vancouverisland #britishcolumbia #cbcnews

sounds to me like oil cartels are just getting in there bribing people so they can keep selling gas

so if we just get rid of the CBC subsidy we can reactivate that railway and the one to Churchill Manitoba sounds good

I don't miss it
It ran I front of my house.
It wasn't useful for commuting! It would cost so much to make safe. It's literally rotted away.

probably cheaper and more efficient to add a ferry from Nanaimo to Victoria

very eager to see rail service restored to the island, rail is much safer and much more scalable than highway traffic
