@serac You might want to drink once you get past Moncton. The tracks are in such bad repair the train crawls along at like 40 km/h.

Weeeeeee.

I still enjoy it though :)

Enjoy the trip! These trainsets are in the process have having their replacements sourced... most of these cars are from the UK's failed Nightstar service built in the 90s by Metro-Cammell.

Gotcha. We had dinner on that part. The good thing about the slow speed was that we were able to spot a moose cow!

Sized.
The green sleeper cars upfront were built to fit the tiny british clearing diagram. They were intended to connect english cities with continental europe. But the concept was dumped before the coaches were shipped across the ocean.

They are good trains after all! Track quality is on a different sheet...

@serac Right? It's a real shame.

I'm looking forward to when they have dedicated tracks with the new ALTO train service. But it's years and years away.
