via rail deal - provincials

[steve_d]

for anyone travelling in canada until july something, there is a 60% off sale with via rail. We were going to drive to london for provincials, but decided to take the train. Was 134$ each return from ottawa to london.

It actually worked out to 40% off since I checked regular fare last night, but still. Much easier to sit in a train when carb depleted and needing to pee every 20 minutes than taking a car.

If anyone else is in the same boat, or just want to book something, you have to do it before friday

I'd love to take the train between edmonton and vancouver, or up to churchill.

I'm going to have to take a look see.

I just hope you`re not late and miss your show. One thing you can count on is Via Rail being late.

Not uncommon for it to be off by 3-5 hours....
