Posted by mtatransit on Sat Feb 16 03:48:17 2019, in response to Re: America w/o Greyhound and no replacement, posted by BusMgr on Sat Feb 16 00:42:14 2019. Toronto-White River Via ONTC 7:15PM- 3:50PM next day Everyday except Sunday I believe (8 hrs, 35 minutes)A night layover at White River (15 hr + 20 minutes) Kasper White River-Thunder Bay 7:10AM next morning to thunder Bay at 12:20PM (5 hr 10 minutes) A night layover at Thunder Bay (21 hrs and 10 minutes) Kasper Thunder Bay- Winnipeg 9:30AM to 7:40PM (10 hr + 10 minutes) This is essentially 3 nights since leaving Toronto.(60 hrs 25 minutes) From Winnipeg, there are multiple operators heading up to Flin Flon Via Dauphin (50 min layover at best, otherwise add 24 hr) Kelsey leaves at 8:30PM (It is very unlikely to connect from Kasper to Kelsey due to different station) gets to Dauphin, MB at 12:50AM (4 hrs + 20 min) OR Brandon Air service provides transportation between Winnipeg to Brandon leaving WPG at 11A, 3 and 8PM taking 2 hours in a half NO SERVICE BETWEEN BRANDON/DAUPHIN TO MELVILLE OR YORKTON. Yorkton Shuttle provides daily service btw Yorkton and Regina at 8 AM, (2 hr + 30 min) DiCal service starts at Melville to Regina at 6:30AM getting there at 8:45AM. (2 hr + 15 Min) ONE DAY LAYOVER AT REGINA,SK (22 hr 45 minutes) Riders Express leaves Regina at 7:30AM M-F and arrives at Edmonton at 4:20PM Via Saskatoon (8 hr + 50 minutes) Edmonton Layover (1 hr 25 min at best otherwise (most probable +24 hrs) (Btw Cold Shot have not begin service to Dawson Creek yet, they still currently end at GP) E Bus at 5:45PM (most likely will not connect with rider express due to stop differences so most likely +1 night at Edmonton), gets to Calgary at 9:30PM (3 hr + 45 min) Calgary layover 22 hr + 45 min) Rider Express at 7:15AM FRIDAYS ONLY leaves Calgary and finally gets to Vancouver at 8PM (12 hr + 45 minutes) Total journey time from WPG to Van excluding the gap- 79 hr 55 min Total Journey time between in total Toronto to Vancouver excluding 100 mile gap of no service 140 hr + 20 min AT BEST (impossible) or around 200 hours (8.3 days) (reasonable) Essentially that is one way to see most of Western Canada with a 100 miles of hitchhiking. |
