Thanks for sharing. Great photos.

Thanks. It’s gorgeous here just like Maine. Nothing better than a pre-breakfast walk along the clifts and Atlantic Ocean, right in our downtown. Lucky you, I read that the route you took is much better. My entire life I wanted to see the famous Morant’s Curve near Lake Louise. I finally got to...

Thanks. I packed a lot of stuff in this fun video to help others enjoy the journey as much as I did.

For those who love trains. Check out my video posted tonight. Everything you need to know about riding Canada’s Icon Train “The Canadian”. The journey is between Vancouver and Toronto and takes 4 nights/5 days. I have people ask me stuff about the train …. so I put this video together for...

I took the Canadian from Vancouver to Toronto Oct 27-31 2023. I did a shorter 39 minute video around seven months ago with grand plans do a second longer video including pretty much my entire collection of IPhone and GoPro video clips and still images. It took months to get back at the project...

I stayed in a lower berth May 2022 and October 2023. I charged my stuff in the bathroom. At times I would boost up my phone in the Park Car. The seats in the bullet lounge have a outlet. Note that the Park was not available until After 4 pm on Days 2,3 and 4. On both trips there were only...

Here is a short clip of one venture train arriving in Ottawa yesterday and another departing. For those interested you should be able to pick out the unit numbers. CANADA’s Train #35 Arr & #26 Dep Ottawa June 27

Thanks for sharing. A change in colour will be nice. I am recently back from train watching in Ottawa today. All three trains I seen were Ventures. A change in colour will be nice. On my last visit just over a month ago I scored Ren, LRC, HEP and Ventures. I was also visiting Ottawa this time...

For those interested I captured REN Train #28 Departing Ottawa on Saturday. Here is the YouTube link. VIA RAIL RENAISSANCE Train #28 Departing Ottawa May 18 2024

Here is the video of the trains I spotted yesterday. It’s on YouTube. Hope the link works.

Thanks I took videos today of Trains 35, 26, 645, 40, 55 and 28. Bonus Train #52 …. I think it wyed at 2:10. I thought it was Train 35 from Montreal with the 2:07 arrival time. Train #35 caught me by surprise and came in shortly after. Fun day plus some needed exercise biking from one end...

Train #28 just leaving Ottawa here now.

I agree, much smaller than the Lower Berths.

I rode eastbound May 6 2022 and Oct 27 2023. Both were great. There will be more daylight hours in April. I am going again Nov 1 2024. The clocks change on night 3 so it will be dark pretty early on our last two nights.

Not one minute of doubt. The only issue was we arrived two hours early and the last morning was rushed. I did the trip with my oldest son in May 2022 and could not wait to go again. That trip was late so it was about 6 hours longer. I was hoping it we would be late again this time. I really...

Here is my Video Travelogue showing a detailed look into the daily routine of travelling 4 nights aboard Canada’s long distance Train. I show you the meals, sleeping arrangements, dome cars, activities, bathrooms, shower and scenery. I flew from St. John’s Newfoundland - the eastern most City...

Nice videos. Thanks for sharing.

Cool I am visiting Ottawa now. I might bike to the station one day this week to see some of the arrivals to and from Montreal and Toronto.

I guess I should be happy with the new VIA information displays. I was hoping they would add the current travel speed, distance to next stop, time of arrival next stop.

Yes once the TCH was completed coast to coast the passenger train was doomed.
