Now, I wouldn’t stay in some crappy podunkville just because it had rail service, but Calgary is nice enough to stay if Banff is too pricy.

I don't know that area, but is Den Hague central and there are destinations surrounding it? If so, it makes sense to pit in at one spot and use it as your base of operations from which you travel. For Calgary, though, you're really just going to head in a straight line west to hit up Banff/LL. At that point, it doesn't make as much sense to be commuting between the city and mountains.
