ROFL, only on Y&R, yes it's a thing. Ridiculous, but yes. In the years between when Daniel Goddard left the role and Billy Flynn took it over, Cane Ashby was working in some sort of business dealings, and became a gazillionaire. He owns an estate in the hills overlooking Nice, France. In winter/spring 2025 he was going by the name "Aristotle Dumas" and he was this mysterious person nobody had seen. In summer 2025 (under his Aristotle Dumas pseudonym) , he invited some Genoa City residents to his French estate for some big mystery business thing. It seemed the only way up the hill (small mountain) was on his private train. He revealed himself as Cane when they arrived.
The train remained parked at his estate. During the weeks the Genoa City characters were at his estate, Cane had his Genoa City guests stay in the train cars as their accommodations on the grounds of his château. He never invited them inside the château during the long summer they were there. They socialized on the train cars, or in a hedge-maze on the grounds. Really. This went on for weeks or months. At the estate, Cane's frustrated servant tried to kill Cane but accidentally killed Chance Chancellor (Phillip IV) instead.
Cane announced he was moving to Genoa City. He LITERALLY said "I own a train exactly like this one on every continent". Yes that's what he said. He arranged to have his North American train moved to Genoa City and that's where he lives now. I guess it's parked in town.
Yes it's absolutely nuts but that's canon now.
