Worse is the Edmonton to Saskatoon run. Long, boring, full of KFC bucket folk. It was always a keep you on you toes trip as made stops in North Battleford and Lloydminster.
There ft.mac folk and then there small city saskie folk.
I have many memories of the Kamloops depot, the Edmonton depot being really gross. Although, it did have an A&W in it, maybe the best food in all the depots maybe.
When I lived in Canmore and Banff, I took that thing to Calgary so many times. 20 bucks was worth it.
I think I had like a turbo emergency once where I had to use the toilet, scary thing to do when your driver is snaking through Salmon arm at mock chicken speeds at 3 in the A.M.
The end of greyhound bummed me out a bit. The end of an era will do that. Even if the entire scene was the literal visualization of what depression looked like.
