I am quite intrigued by the possibility of train travel between Calgary/Canmore/Banff. There have to obviously be other plans such as a more frequent bus route that takes people to locations such as Johnston Canyon/Lake Louise/Sunshine etc.

Driving to the mountains at times has become unbearable due to the traffic and lack of parking. This might even bring in more visitor/tourist dollars due to people going more frequently for meals/bars etc. without having to worry about driving.

I would think it would be more like the regular train systems of tickets having to be purchased to specific time slots and seats as opposed to just general travel tickets.
