Shotgun Jimmie is out on the road by rail and is talking about it on his Myspace Blog:

Hi Everyone!

Right now, I'm on cross Canada tour on the Train. Here is a little journal entry in case you are wondering how it is going.

There is a lot of time on the train to think about how sweet it is not to be in a bus or a car. What I mean by that is, usually, the drive between Toronto and Winnipeg can be painful, scary, smelly, and monotonous. Don't get me wrong--it's usually also a lot of fun. But I'm the kind of guy who worries about animals on the road at night, whether I'm driving or in the back of the van, pretending to be sleeping, worrying about animals on the road. It's quite relaxing to be on the train. The staff has been incredibly warm and welcoming.
Right now, we're in Winnipeg for a couple of days. Playing at the Lo Pub tomorrow night (Friday!)

Jimmie is also posting video from the road. For remaining tour dates scroll to the bottom of the page:
