but we are not talking about one ro tow people trying to board - we are talking about 100 or more. add in the fact that they are tourists and may not speak english very well.
at peak periods i am sure the c-train stops for more than one minute at each stop. also, i am assuming that if this idea were to fly, we are not talking about a train out to banff every 10 minutes like a c-train - this would need to be a scheduled service.
i am trying to imagine the chaos of folks to to wrangle a bike and a duffle bag off the train while others are trying to board all within 120 seconds.
