Why does it cost so much from Toronto to Vancouver and why do we have to change so many trains just to get to Vancouver starting from Halifax what the hell is wrong with this country?
For those living outside of toronto, do not purchase a ticket to toronto with via rail instead purchase a GO train ticket separate and then book with via rail from toronto to montreal. GO train ticket can be used for any time/day as long as you activate it 5min before you board. Ticket last for 4 hour and only cost less than 20$. For example if I were to go from kitchener to Montreal, via rail would only show me a few option. Instead check go train schedules for that day from Kitchener to union and buy a ticket for Toronto to Montreal base on the schedule, then buy the go train ticket. You have more time option and if you miss the go train/bus take the next one with the same ticket
Still depends actually. There are only 5 direct trains from Toronto to Montreal daily. One of them departs at 8:30am, too early to catch. The one around 11:30 takes 5h30m, the slowest among the five. The rest 3 leave sufficient gap for transfer at Toronto. The advantage of taking VIA vs GO is the speed. Most GO trains from Kitchener to Toronto take more than 2 hours, but VIA takes 1h38m.
We usually hop on the 8:10 am Go train from Barrie when going to Toronto. We are planning on heading to Montreal this summer, and it would be an 11:32, which will give us 44 minutes to get from one train to the next. I've done it multiple times when visiting hubby while he was posted with the Canadian Armed Forces to Montreal, and I stayed back in Ontario. There's a Tim Hortons just before the Barrie South GO, so we stop in there, get a coffee for the ride, and a sandwich for lunch. I also pack lots of snacks and our reusable water bottles.
Lol the "boarding process" really turns me off to taking the train in Canada. In France (where I live) you can literally just show up up to 2 minutes before the train departs and hop on board. It baffles me that they make people show up a half an hour early to go through some airport-like boarding shenanigans when the trains are already soo slow in Canada. Sorry for being a negative nelly, otherwise the experience on board seems quite nice!
When I do longer trips like that i like to order a pizza the night before put it in the fridge over night and then pack the slices in Tupperware, then into a lunch bag with an ice pack and have cold pizza for the whole ride.
@@LivinginCanada yeah im just paranoid about the cheese and or meat toppings going bad. its probably not an issue unless its crazy hot outside. you can wrap the icepack in a kitchen towel or scrap of cloth to keep the lunch bag cool but not ice cold. you could also just put cold cans of pop in the same bag instead of the ice pack and they should help keep it cool a while.
Great video! Some of my family and friends took VIA rail from Toronto to: Ottawa a few years ago, and really enjoyed it. Hopefully I will be able to try it soon, as I have never taken it before.
This has helped me decide to not take the train from Toronto to Montreal. I'd prefer to travel by train both as it is better for the environment and also usually a more enjoyable overall experience, but I've read a few different stories now about these trains often being delayed. That, plus the price is ridiculous, make the plane seem the better option now unfortunately.
It's weird to me how north america treats a train trip like airplane travel. Why do boarding at all? Limits of the amount of luggage? Just let people board the trains by themselves, check tickets inside the train. Let them take as much luggage as they can move by themselves.
Sehr gutes Video! Auch wenn es schon 2 Jahre alt ist, hoffe ich eine Frage beantwortet zu bekommen. Wie genau ist der Vorabcheck des Gepäcks. Es ist für uns klar, dass wir die Option "large" zu buchen müssen. Leider überschreiten unsere Koffer die Max-Angaben an einer Stelle, denn der Samsonite Steyde 2 large Glider hat folgende Maße: 62 cm * 62 cm * 30 cm. Werden vor dem Einstieg die Koffer ausgemessen??
Imagine a bonafide VIA Rail transcontinental route from Vancouver to Halifax, or vice versa. By the way, is it really is pronounced VIA (with a long e) instead of VIA (with a long i)? Kind of like route (rhyming with 'hoot') vs. route (rhyming with 'out')? I just thought that each respective second pronunciation of each word was the correct. Anywho, I digress.
Hi dear, how is the weather in Canada especially Toronto and Montreal in April, I'm going there for a vacation, also how many days did you recommend spending each city?
@@LivinginCanada pls suggest a cheap bnb in Montreal, I will be traveling on Canada Day long weekend and coming back around 7/8 July 2023,, I am traveling alone since husband and kids are traveling to India,, pls advise some cheap bnb around where via rail station is,, I will be waiting for your reply
I’m coming to Canada on April 17th 2024 I will be arriving at Montreal airport. How can I navigate to North bay Toronto? How to pay for train / bus ticket? Thanks
Hey is this Economy fare escape seating? Does it have any other seating? Whats the difference between fare escape and normal economy? Please reply. Thank you!
I've taken trains in Europe (ICE Germany) and Japan (Shinkansen), and they're definitely much better then viarail. I've never taken Amtrak or Chinese trains before, so good to know that!
Luggage being as limited like that on a train is ridiculous. I am Canadian but experienced in traveling by train in several countries in Europe I have to say that Via Rail is not very good in comparison.
Finally some Canadian with common sense ....the rules and regulations in this country are beyond ridiculous....for example for the Megabus any extra luggage you should pay a full ticket for it ...via train charges you 40 dollars extra ....I have travelled all over Europe and even Africa and I have never seen any rail company weighing or measuring your luggage ...Canada is a ridiculous country ...plus did you see those security guards watching passengers boarding a train ...WTF ...RIDICULOUS .....
Glad you were able to enjoy this trip, while I was barred from traveling within my own country, violating my constitutional rights.....for no good reason.
Tip # one , take the bus , its faster and cheaper , Via rail does not own the tracks , they have to stop quite often to allow freight trains the right of way , I traveled from Halifax to Kamloops B.C. on via rail , but would not suggest the windsor corridor on Via to anyone , to many stops , to much freight traffic , to many chances to get into a collision with a freight train
Good tip, yes, taking the GO Bus (within Ontario, GTA and surroundings), or even Megabus can be faster sometimes. It's crazy how often and how long Via Rail stops.
hi! im about to book for the exact same trip and i was wondering, if im going with a large group, how can we get seats together? we are paying separately. is there a way to choose?
According to viarail: "If your booking confirmation does not show a seat number, you may choose your seat when you board the train. Accommodations are always assigned on all of our trains." So if the train is empty, you can ask the staff to change seats to group together. But it's a bit tricky, especially if the train is full. I think it's best if one person does the booking, and then you collect the payments. You can't guarantee that the seats will be next to each other, but there's a higher possibility as the system usually books the closest seats together. Also btw, there is a group offer for 10 travellers and above. Haven't tried it yet, but who knows that there are seat arrangements too. Check this out: www.viarail.ca/en/offers/groups
Boarding process, gates, baording pass?? WTF?! This is a station, not an airport. Let people get onboard the train on their own, without any fuss. Just indicate the platform on the departure board and it will do. Canada should have a look in Europe and East Asia and get some inspiration from them.
Not sure how it works now though, the video was made in May. Hopefully things are easier now. Yes I remember in Germany I simply hopped on the train with my ticket and they would check in on board.
Canada is a police state with zero common sense ...the only country where a train company weighs your luggage before letting you board ...what a ridiculous country
There are gates in Europe, people have tickets and there are different classes. The boarding process was just scanning the tickets and separating based on class type. Why are you making such a fuss about something so minimal?
@@nataliajimenez1870 Why do YOU, Canadians, make such a fuss about taking something so basic as a train? VIA Rail even weighs people's baggage! Incredible... And, for your info, there are hardly any gates for trains in Europe: they're really the exception, not the rule.
Having to yield to freight train traffic is something I really don´t like about Amtrak. Up until the post WW2 era, the United States was the world leader in rail travel, and the best connected. After the auto industry threw their weight around, and the government were building the interstate. So there was a heavy emphasis on cars. If I was president, which is never going to happen, I would put a heavy emphasis on expanding passenger rail, making it accessible and practical. In other parts of the world, I can literally go anywhere in the country or region I want by train. I actually hate driving, and would rather just sit and reduce the stress of travel.
@@LivinginCanada I´m planning my first trip to Japan later in the year. Shinkansen is on my bucket list, and I´m going to spring for Gran Class at least once.
@@LivinginCanada Then that means your 2nd tip to reserve seat at the end of the car is not valid. I hope they give this option to reserve specific seats in the future.
Yes it's like boarding on an airplane, they check the tickets before you board, and also on the train. So you need to each have your tickets on your phone to make things easier, cheers!
Yes you can buy viarail tickets at the station directly. But I would recommend buying these online. If you buy them on the day you may not be able to get the cheapest fare. Hope this helps!
It's about 5.5 hours but with delay, over 6 hours. You can find the baggage policy in your ticket (I put a screenshot somewhere in the video too). Never took business class before!
At the time of uploading this video, yes. But now it seems that it's been suspended "VIA Rail has suspended the verification of vaccination status for all passengers." (viarail.ca). Make sure to check the official viarail.ca website for related updates! Cheers
Perhaps it went into spam? I regularly receive their emails. But for the tuesday discount you can actually just check in to their website a few days before.
@@LivinginCanada Thanks for a replay I have checked in every folder there are no message yet I was trying to book by online but I couldn't able to do it so I wend to via rail station to book for a ticket I got an amazing deal for travelling from Toronto to Jasper AB. $487 including tax.

It's pretty comfortable, just be prepared for the potential, likely delays!
English first is spoken in the announcements when in Ontario, then French. In Québec its French first, then English.
“Like a flight.” Three words that just depress me when used to describe train travel.

Just let people board the trains by themselves, check tickets inside the train. Let them take as much luggage as they can move by themselves.
I agree. The process is too complicated. I hope to make an updated video (post Covid Peak) to see whether it has changed at all.
The washroom looks better than the restrooms in Amtrak trains. I hope to take Via Rail one day.
Never took Amtrak before, but yes, the washrooms are quite decent!!

Why do you keep saying you reserved seat? is not the seat assignment done by via rail? Buyers can't choose it
When booking the seats together, we were assigned seats in a row (two rows facing). But correct, as far as I know you can't reserve specific seats.
@@LivinginCanada Then that means your 2nd tip to reserve seat at the end of the car is not valid.
