I find the change of direction in Edmonton very interesting. I have been wondering for a long time how it will actually happen.

Great video. I subscribed to your channel as well!

Fantastic fall colours. No doubt the train was sold out.

The "Manor" series sleeping cars used in the Canadian have six bedrooms ("Cabin for 2" ), lettered A to F. By a quirk of the car's design, bedroom "F" is significantly larger than the others (which makes a big difference in floor space when the beds are folded down). Since VIA does not make a distinction in fare for this one room, it gives a bonus for costing the same as the others. Therefore, experienced travellers and railfans "in the know" reserving a bedroom always try to book "F" . Phone into VIA directly to book this room, as the website doesnt give you the choice of letter.

Excellent Video! Thumbs Up and best Greetings

nice . this is how amtrack roometes were before they went to superliners .

This was a gr8 vidio!! Let's of scenery & little unrelevant info on rooms etc. Comments in writing @ bottom of vidio could b of a bigger font & kept there longer, but.... otherwise a végy enjoyable "ride"!!!❤

I really enjoyed the journey last month , However I wish DEP time was in midday from Vancouver.

The transition cars some are old Santa Fe rebuilds

Awesome job …. Great captions the best I’ve seen 😊

A Tiger crewmans NIGHTMARE!

I have watched both going from Chicago to San Fransisco and back again from my armchair in the UK England I have watcched other videos similar but yours beats them all I have really enjoyed seeing ALL the scenery and thank you very much .

Thanks a lot for this amazing video, I’m going to take the same route next july 10th, I’m going in economy, i have a question, i know i have to bags (10kg and 23kg) but i’m going just with a small bag, can i take the another to bring some food like noodles and beverages, due to lack of food options in economy? Thanks again!!

That looks great. My Friend Jack was a gunner on a firefly with the 8th Hussars during WW2.

Best train ride ever was in Pullman pulled by coal burner (late 1940s) northern route from Los Angeles to Shrevesport.

All the graffiti I’ve ever seen on trains or on walls seen out train windows looks like it was done by the same person.

We've enjoyed the trip twice--both in February. But even a foot of snow can't mask the dreariness of Northern Ontario. Would suggest Winnipeg to Vancouver.

I really think that section is probably the most picturesque along the coast there and through Bellingham. Thanks for the vid.

Once my husband and I decided to take this train in 2025, I’ve been watching several videos on the subject. When I saw that you had a 4-part series on almost the route we’re doing, I knew I had to watch all of them. I’m just on part 1 and almost decided a two hour video was too long. However, I started watching and was amazed how much more information you included in your video. So now I’m definitely watching them all. Thanks very much for the time and effort I know this took. It’s most appreciated.

Thanks for the very comprehensive video! My son and I are taking the Zephyr from Chicago to Davis in July.

Brought back memories of fall 2023. Id love to do it again in the winter.

Thanks for the great video. I went from Vancouver to Alberta in 1986 when I was in my 20's....I'm going to do the Canadian from Edmonton to Toronto - and back - this Christmas at 62. After losing my wife recently, I want to check off a bucket list trip while I can

Hello from Spain! There is a train from Portland to San Francisco? By the way, how lasts the train from San Francisco to Vegas? Nice video! Interesting to see train videos from the US!

I just picked up a set of these F3 ABA CP units, and wondering how many passenger cars they can comfortably pull on a flat level surface? I see you’re only pulling 5 in your lashup, and that’s with an extra helper ( powered?) engine.

Very enjoyable! Thanks for letting me come along! Looking forward to our next trip! ❤️💯

Great video! Martinez is my home station and I often film the trains there. You can actually see me in your video standing at the end of the platform filming as you are pulling out of Martinez. You can see the video of your train pulling in and leaving on my channel if you are interested!

Worth it for the sweeping mountain curves!

You can also make the beds yourself, simple to do.

What was your favorite meal on this train? How many hours of uninterrupted sleep did you get on this trai?

You used to be able to take Via Rail from Nanaimo to Courtenay on Vancouver Island on the old E&N lines twice daily. I'm not sure when that ended, but I used it last in the mid-90's.

Thank you for sharing this trip. I´ve seen all four parts from Toronto. A lot of beautiful scenery and impressions. The best of all ia that you don't use music. Only ambient sound. And no talking, but nice and informative texting. Thank you. Greetings from Thailand. :-)

Thanks for the video! I'll be taking the Canadian from Edmonton to Toronto and back in November and i can't wait. It's on my bucket list - I did Vancouver to Alberta 40 years ago - time to finish the trip!

wow … you did my dream trip 🥰 Your latest trip from Chicago to San francisco came up on my feed and I found this trip. You earned likes and a subscribe 👍🏻

are you standing between cars with your camera looking at the train movement?

This is certainly a most extensive video - just like taking the entire trip with you! Thank you for all your work filming.

The road through Glenwood Canyon is actually I-70. The four-lane interstate was built in the 1990's and is considered an engineering marvel. They built a four-lane interstate through the canyon, while preserving the beauty of the canyon.

they're passing the freight train in the siding at 1:18 , if that was amtrak it would be in the siding waiting for the freight train to pass 😕

nice video cant find the other video of the east bound one. been on that train before a few times

Just one more comment I live outside of St Louis and in 1967 we drove to California on Highway 70 that's the highway you see next to the train now called Highway 6 when we went through it was just two lane luckily there were no accidents so we drove right through onward to San Francisco

The conductor on Amtrak is the same conductor I've heard over the years in different train videos thanks for making your video

Love your video. Is there an app available where you can track in real time your journey on Amtrak?

I'm itching to go on another train trip. Which do you prefer? VIA or Amtrak? How do they compare?

Thanks, though as a Seattleite I’m baffled as to why you call it the LRT. Everyone here just refers to it as Light Rail. If you asked someone where the LRT is, you’d likely get a quizzical look.

looks like a fun trip

looks like fun you should talk more Pierre tell us whats going on what your seeing and thinking

Great video! I am amazed by the mileage the Canadian covers. It runs from coast to coast. The distance is equivalent to taking a train from NYC to Los Ángeles California

Hi, if i book ticket online do i have to check-in ticket at counter?
