Had a beer Friday night with the Consultant the City hired to study the feasibility of Commuter Rail in the Halifax area. His main point was that CN will NEVER share the right of way and that even the thought of having too marshalls all of their considerable resources to go to the castle walls if you will.
Not going to happen especially as Saint John is now another competitor and CN feels the need to have only one partner, namely Halifax Port Corporation, to keep things moving.
