Though, as a person that has lived on the KCS N-S trunk line, the traffic growth opportunity is fascinating

In a spectacular branding exercise meets goodwill generating foodbank fundraiser, each December, #CanadianPacific gives something back to the towns that their coal and freight trains ceaselessly rumble through. The #HolidayTrain brings some of that Wintry #Christmas Magic we hear about from Australia, but that you can only truly obtain in the Northern latitudes.
For the towns in the #RockyMountains and across the vast prairies of Central Canada that grew up alongside Canadian Pacific railways, it’s a beautiful but poignant reminder of what once was. In each town, for one brief hour in December, the Golden Age of #rail #travel returns.
