VIA Rail Canada: Travel by train for vacations or for busine


I have also travelled across Canada by train… for pleasure! VIA Rail has taken me from the Pacific coast and through the majestic Canadian Rockies to the great cities of Eastern Canada. Cities I have visited on my train travels: Vancouver, Calgary, Wnnipeg, Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, Quebec City, and Halifax. viarail.ca.

I’m taking The Canadian from Toronto to Vancouver and BACK AGAIN! this Christmas. I’m salivating! I can’t wait for this dream experience!! There is NOTHING like train travel. I had a hellish plane trip to Vancouver last winter, and plan on taking the train for now on. Costs more? Yes. But worth every bloody penny!

It was better, train travel in Canada is nice, though isn’t as good as it use to be. Calgary hasn’t had intercity train service since 1990.

That was when it was still “The Canadian”, now what we have is really “The Super Continental” rebranded as “The Canadian”.

I want a trip… :)
that’s amazing!!!

Yes, the original Canadian was by CP, and continued with VIA on the southern CP route. Now the Canadian travels on the northern CN route, and it was actually called the Super Continental until VIA cut most of its routes in 1990.

I’ve travelled the Canadian on Via many times to Vancouver from Toronto. The best trip I’ve ever taken and I’ll do it again and again. Can hardly wait.

Heard that one was actually better than CN route, is it true?

By PositiveChillout on July 1st, 2010 at 11:35 pm

Awesome. I hope to do this someday

I took my 1st train trip when I was 12…California to Oregon. It was a great experience. Took my next trip with my wife and infant son from Chicago to Montana. There is no other form of travel like it. A very unique, excellent way to travel.

Is this one of the project in B.S. Tourism?

Filipino TNT’s should be deported and killed in a TNT.

Yep, nothing beats travel by train, i was on the VIA Canadian when it was still on the CPR in 1989, i’ll never forget it
