Doesn't really matter to me - all I know is that there's one too many crossings for at-grade rail to work. Worth noting that the E&N runs through a park though, and the Esquimalt Nation will probably want their surface rights back, so I figure Red will have to duck into a tunnel somewhere around Helmcken; YMMV on whether it should stay there or briefly go elevated again until Victoria West.
Though I suppose if that segment is tunneled, then it doesn't need that weird bend...
