I've often heard that VIA rejected bilevels in the past (in the 80s they considered piggybacking on the Superliners II order), but what exactly were those various reasons? Accessibility wasn't that big an is in the 1980s.They can always piggyback on Amtrak's single level order or even better Amtrak could piggyback on VIA's single level order for the necessary single level LD equipment.VIA has in past already rejected bi-levels once for various reasons. They did try out Superliners for a short period and jointly operated the Superliner Chicago - Toronto service for a little while too.
