THE RAIL GAME

The author discusses the imbalance of Canadian transportation with its overemphasis on highways and airways, "and a neglect of railroads, which often operate with old equipment on poor-quality track and use obsolete facilities and operations procedures." Despite extensive documentation, the author does not establish the responsibility of management, labor, government or the public in Canada's continuing railroad problems.
