Calgary C-Train Map - Super Mario 3 Style

After the Vancouver Skytrain map was done in Mario 3 style, I thought I’d make one for my original hometown of Calgary Alberta. This map features the C-Train, which is a Light Rail Transit system.
The map was done in the style of World 4, having already made Vancouver in the style of World 1. I could have made this in the World 1 style, but wanted a bit of variety. Maybe a World 1 version can be done later. The colors from World 4 are a bit loud, aren’t they?
UPDATE: Added a World 1 version:

Calgary is landlocked, so I couldn’t add any coin boats or warp pipes (to denote ‘off-screen’ travel), among the many items seen in the Vancouver one. Hopefully the addition of Mario himself in a stetson hat will make up for that!
Also the map didn’t leave much room for the Mario 3 UI. The flowers were spaced in that fashion in World 4.
