Zoom RegistrationElectric Rail in Canada - A Coast-to-Coast Overview
Retired Canadian Urban Transit Association (CUTA) President and CEO Michael Roschlau takes us on a 90-minute cross-Canada tour of the country’s varied electric rail operations, from streetcar to light rail to subway. The program covers all currently operating electric rail systems with a note about their history, rationale for building rapid transit in Canada, and future prospects. The work of the Canadian Transit Heritage Foundation in promoting public transit and historic preservation is also covered.
Michael presented this program at the 2024 ERA Convention in Edmonton and Calgary. The Canadian outlook on transit nationwide is rarely presented. This presentation is concise, informative, and not to be missed!
