[QUOTE]Originally posted by notelvis: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by graynt: [qb] I just returned from a trip from Toronto to Vancouver on the Canadian. For an upper berth it cost me $750 US including rail fare..a three day trip. Now thats a little higher that Amtrak, but this journey was similar to a cruise...the best food I ever ate..different menus at each meal..food served on china..Free champagne every day, fruit and cookies served all day in the Park car,etc. This could be a whole other thread, but I got off that train Sunday in Vancouver totally impressed and asking myself why can't Amtrak be like this?..or maybe years ago they once were..before I began riding regularly in 1990. [/qb][/QUOTE]My wife and I rode the 'Canadian' from Vancouver to Winnipeg in April 2004........part of the best trip we've ever taken. (Included 3 nights in Victoria, B.C.). The 'Canadian' is exactly as you describe and nothing Amtrak has ever operated has been 'like that'. It's a pity. [/QB][/QUOTE]
