Fake trains, real money.

"
The technology, which is still in development and not yet commercially available for locomotives, is expected to reduce particulate by 90 per cent and nitrogen oxides by 80 per cent, when used in combination with low-sulphur fuels.
"

uh-huh... another big plan without the infrastructure or technology (nevermind that the science behind it doesn't really work!!!) to fund further financial loopholes for the back-scratching Province and their pals... great. Being exposed to the fuel industry for the last few years, I can safely predict this gets pushed back at least 15 years when suddenly a different technology / fuel is studied; for at least an additional 2 years.

Great idea, horrible execution.
