How is winter reliability (track maintenance, snow storms, big delays/cancellations) on (VIA Rail) Montreal-Ottawa or Montreal-Toronto vs. Amtrak Adirondack (NYC->Montreal) in January, please?
If there is a cancellation, which one works harder (like adding extra carriages to the later trains - never heard of on Amtrak Cascades).
And (ignoring the border crossing), is any of the two a much better/worse travel experience? Do economy seats on any of them have power sockets? Do the cars/seats on various Montreal-Ottawa or Montreal-Toronto trains differ much?
