Those “ducks” are Canada Geese. AKA cobra chickens. They can be pretty aggressive, especially earlier in the summer when they have goslings.

Thank you for the video. You have a very good camera and the scenes outside of the train look nice and clear and in focus. Unfortunately, AMTRAK doesn't think that clean trains are a priority and the windows are often very dirty. Better than what you will find in Canada though! Good luck!

There was a major remodel done to the building that finished in 2013. There was a horrible 1950’s drop ceiling of acoustical tile, with nasty florescent lights that were hiding the beautiful molded ceiling and chandeliers. Everything inside got cleaned and polished. Outside the bricks were cleaned and repointed. And after decades of not functioning the neon lights were replaced and the clock now runs. The brick building across the street to the east is the old Union Station, now privately owned. But competing train services used to run out of both stations.

Welcome to Canada! You've taken trains in lots of different countries. I hate to tell you, but VIA Rail has a bad reputation. And deservedly so. If you like arriving at your destination on time, then don't take VIA Rail.

you have travelled two days later on the exact train I took; Why didn't you sit on the left side of the train to enjoy the scenery of the puget sound and salish sea?

@ReyOfLight 7 ай бұрын

I'm guessing Kuga just had to take what seat was available when he booked his ticket. It was announced as a sold out train after all (heard early in the video), so depending on when he booked his ticket, choices may have been limited, if you can even book your exact seat in the first place (I don't know how it works with that on Amtrak, I'm from Sweden)

hi, Amtrak does not offer pre-assigned seating on this train; it is first come first serve; whoever boards the train first, gets the best seat

This is 1 of the things I hate about riding Amtrak...the seat facing the backwards position when train going forward...causes me to have dizziness. But in some places I know the seats can be turn around to face forward. To much to ask for right now..we just want the dining car back

Well, I see I'm not the first, but whatever you do don't engage with the "ducks". Canadian geese are 15 lbs of hissing menace and beaky spite, and they will come after you en masse if the ones on guard duty take a dislike to you. At least it isn't gosling season right now.
