The ticket should be much cheaper than I suggested, but who knows how much it will be in the end. If the VIA Rail ticket is any price point to start from, then it is likely more trouble than it's worth.
Personally I'd love to see a fast passenger train to Lake Louise, with drop off points at the ski hills you want to visit (e.g. Nakiska, Norquay, Sunshine, Lake Louise), and with the hills operating appropriate shuttle service. I'd take that in a heartbeat, last thing I want to do is drive home after a good ski day (and possibly in crap weather too).
