[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by futuremodal For what it's worth, I had advised the BC Transportation honcho to take a giant leap forward and make the BCR an open access line, the first in North America. The province would have continuted to own the right of way, but all connecting railroads would have been able to access the property. The idea was just a bit too intimidating to be seriously considered. The unanswered question is if the shippers affected are better off or worse off than if the open access experiment had been tried, both as opposed to CN's takeover or if the property had been left as a provincially run railroad. Perhaps an opportunity lost? [/quote] That could have been an excellent experiment!! A definate opportunity lost! Damn, they could have run the entire right-of-way just like they are running the Port Subdivision at Roberts Bank now..... Wow, that thought never even occured to me... what a bummer.
