In Canada, many rail networks have been actively demolished. Where people used to be able to take trains to many small towns across the country, we now have “railway pubs” and “railway trails” where stations & tracks **used** to be 😒😒😒

Btw do you have maps/citations for these routes? I’ve reached out to the NB Railway Museum & NB Museum several times for a map/info about all historic passenger rail routes in NB but nobody ever responds. 😒
