Traveling back to Montreal from London today. Caught the train in London bright and early at 6:25am.
The trip is divided in two segments. One to Toronto, in my case I had about an hour to get some food and coffee.
Highly recommend taking the viarail. It's a lot better than taking the bus if you want to get some work done. Each seat gets a power plug and the wifi is relatively good.
I've also done this same trip by plane and seems like half the time it gets delayed or even cancelled. In my opinion ViaRail is the best option out of bus, train, and plane.
In addition to reliability train is reasonably priced and comfortable. I'd love to take more train rides around Canada this summer.
As someone enrolled in a graduate class at a University I qualify for the 60 day unlimited Canada wide travel pass. For ~$600 (+tax) you can go anywhere in the network as many trips as you want.
Thanks for reading, keep an eye out for more train and travel posts.
