Skelly:
I am asking about passengers using trains that terminate at either NFL or NFS that would have the opportunity to cross the border and connect
between train services of Amtrak, VIA and GO over and above the two through Maple Leaf trains each day.
More through trains through Niagara Falls would be great -but- either instituting a dedicated van/bus service or allowing connecting passengers
to walk between the two stations (I have used the Whirlpool Bridge walkways in the past before the NEXUS card holder restrictions began) could
allow new rail travel options between carriers offering more flexibility compared to using only #63 and #64 each day.
What I am not familiar with is the status of the pedestrian walkways on the Whirlpool Bridge: Can a NEXUS card holder on foot use them?
If they are closed and unavailable any idea when this change was made?
A dedicated van/bus service would be for documented and/or ticketed passengers if only vehicular crossing is available.
This could even be in the form of a "bridge bus" operated by NFTA or Niagara Transit modeled on the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel Bus...
