A Szeged-Makó vasút tervezése 4,5 milliárd volt, az előkészítése plusz 2,7 milliárd lesz | atlatszo.hu

A vasút a harmadik szegedi hídon menne át, arról viszont a tervezés során lehagyták. Az is rejtély, hogy mennyibe fog kerülni és honnan lesz

"A vasút a harmadik szegedi hídon menne át" A harmadik híd már egy mém Szegeden. Soha nem fog megépülni.

BC Transportation Governance

Rail proponent offers another perspective on E&N by Brendan Read, a former Victoria and Courtenay resident and co-founder of the SaveRail Coalition. Opinion page Goldstream Gazette, 28 Jan 2015.

Re: Passenger rail needs teamwork (Our View, Dec. 26, 2014)

Picture of E&N tracks at Langford

"The E&N route is the best option for rail transit because it uses the existing right of way and is the only option to serve the critical Esquimalt dockyards and military employment markets. Unlike Uptown, on Highway 1, Esquimalt has no rapid bus alternatives. The E&N also can serve Victoria General Hospital with a short shuttle service.
