It could integrate to a passenger rail service, but more realistically it would be a parking hub for an efficient transit/shuttle service to the Bow Valley - in a utopian future where parking in Canmore/Banff is really expensive.

Car free central district with hotels and dense housing (think Whistler) - a loop road would allow vehicle access to to parkades from the 'outside'. A giant parking lot buffering the TC1 sandwiching a transit focal point. Big cabin lots a bit further west to help subsidize the whole thing.
Was it Sliver who envisioned something like this a few years ago? A whole new town in the Alberta mountains?
