I love these long videos I work nights I watch them before going to bed. 🥰 Bruce Jenner, Sugar Ray Leonard, Nadia Comaneci and Edwin Moses are the names I remember from that Olympic.

Great video. I feel like I am sitting beside you.

Glad to see more of things to see along the way rather than just a review of food and cabins aboard the train.

Most of the comments seem to be about trains, but to answer your question about the 1976 Winter Olympics. It was special to us in the UK when John Curry won the men's Figure Skating gold medal and changed the whole concept of skating forever. He paved the way for the transition from just pure technical ability to skating as an art form.

Oh I love everything begals with veggie cream cheese

Nadia Comaneci

Its nice to see a passenger train with more than six or seven cars. I'm old enough to remember when the California Zephyr and the 20th Century Limited were trains of this length.

I’d love to see u 2 in Prestige Class. 🥶Beautiful Scenery

As a San Diego native and avid Padres fan…I enjoyed Rob’s repping the “Pads” with his cap in the video! ⚾️👍

Makes me want to take a train trip. The last one I had was from DC to Denver. My ears loved it. No vertigo from air travel. Also, I had 3 hours to walk around Chicago.

Travel Enjoy Life Family Blessed ♥ DETROIT

Nadia Comanice to your trivia question. Enjoy your videos!

Thank you so much for sharing your trips with us. I love the train and am hoping to take a trip across next Christmastime. Thank you for the preview! Nice music choice for your video and thank you for providing the names of the songs; I've added Divine Life Society to my playlist. 😊

I can remember as a child going on a camping trip around Lake Superior and watching the Montreal Olympics on a little black and white TV we had set up in our trailer. The big star was gymnast Nadia Comaneci from Romania, who racked up seven perfect 10 ratings.

Greetings Allie and Rob. 8F (-13c) is not cold for Jasper, lol. It can get much colder than that in Jasper.

Wow, Winnipeg station was awesome.

Every time I hear Saskatoon, the scene from "Grown Ups" comes to mind. Lol.

I miss you talking about the meals rather than the silence. Were they good? How would we know?

This trip looks amazing! And I'm a huge olympics fan too -- I think the biggest star of those games had to be Nadia Comaneci, and her perfect 10 in gymnastics, but it also got Bruce Jenner on the Wheaties box for setting the decathlon record. Bonus that Sugar Ray Leonard won gold in the boxing too. Lot of famous names in those games!

Thank you for doing this full version. I love your videos. I travel vicariously through these.

Great video of the new VIA RAIL.CANADIAN TORONTO TO VANCOUVER...my daughter and I travelled from QUEBEC CITY TO VANCOUVER 2004...the railroad cars, were older but the first class equipment, upper & lower berths were a great deal larger & more comfortable than the what appears on your video...our trip started in Berkeley, CA to NYC, Montreal, QB City, TORONTO, MANITOBA, etc., if we had waited to travel 2023, we would have not.neen happy with the small space...never the less, we really e enjoyed your travel video. Jessica

Thank you for another great trip !

That mall was so cool.

Best spot on the train 😍

In answer to your question, I don’t care for Everything bagels. My favorites are cinnamon raisin and blueberry. Cinnamon raisin with butter and cream cheese. There’s something about the tangy cream cheese with the cinnamon and raisins. Blueberry bagels with just butter. And they always have to be toasted. Yum!

You two are adorable! I sure am learning a lot about Amtrak. Ive been thinking about planning a trip and you two have great tips.

You two make such lovely presentations😊!

We are looking forward to taking this trip in April.

I'm betting on Nadia Comaneci as the standout in the 1976 Olympics. Seven perfect 10s; enough said.

I'm amazed at how ViiaRail has kept these vintage (65+y/o) cars in such great working condition. There are a few of these cars in the U.S. that are privately owned, but they're for charter & are incredibly expensive. People may complain ViaRail's sleeper car fares are expensive, but it's worth trying at least once. The observation dome car (Park Car) is usually found at the rear of trains & offer the best views. My guess is it probably requires a lot of switching to place them where they need to be. There weren't many built & are a huge draw for train enthusiasts worldwide.

Just love all your videos! I uselessly take the train from Cleveland to Chicago and then to El Paso TX to visit my sister in Alamo. NM I only wish the trains were clean and more updated for the price they charge…enjoy stay safe can’t wait until your next video.

I did this trip back in 2016 on a slightly different timetable from yours (we left Toronto about 10 p.m.) I think you saw more of the Rockies than we did. While I thought Vancouver was beautiful I was there during the aftermath of a major Pacific storm and "Rain-couver" doesn't even begin to cover it! They have amazing food there, and they need it to make up for the rotten weather. I'm determined to go back in June or July when I hear the sun actually shines at time.

Cool a train across Canada....or 6 out of the 10 provinces!!!

Hmmm I think I could enjoy this trip. First up though, riding across the US. Yes!

Thank you for sharing this amazing trip! So nice your daughter could join you...She looks like an Allie mini-me!! So cute!

Hi, thank you for sharing. I love your videos.

I was surprised that there were not more freight trains through the Rockies,

It would be nice to what you paid for the various trip segments, per person, for your roomettes. A map of the trip would be good too.

I loved the Olympics on regular TV! Only topped by being there in person (L.A.). They all get jumbled up now, so I had to cheat... Bruce Jenner, Leon Spinks, Sugar Ray L, but for me Nadia C with those 10s, and Greg Louganis with those dives! Gotta admit, I'm not a huge fan of music on the vids. I miss the train sounds. I guess that's tricky if you want to chat! I also like the voice-overs. I greatly appreciate the captions with cities and info! The views are always wonderful! Interesting how the observation/park car is rows of seating instead of facing out. Rare moment...I agreed with Allie on a food! Fish tacos over chorizo. Now to finish the video!

Thank you for sharing this with us, and taking us along for the ride. Beautiful

Nadia Comaneci, gymnast from Romania. Was in Atlanta and saw the Olympic rings there.

Those Canadian Rockies in the snow! Makes me want to just ride that route back and forth!

Rob was having his best life on that slide...lol. I'm jealous.

Yous would enjoy travelling on the Zaandam Montreal-Boston. Yous are pretty close!

I'm glad this trip to Canada continues. The video I saw in the Canada Rockies just stopped and I was enjoying the trip and train Canadian train. Thanks for the continues of the trip!

Way better than the shorter video from a few months ago. Being a Canadian from Toronto now living in Orange County, really enjoyed it.

Watched this a few times, my fave vid of Via Rail across Canada! (most def on "bucket list" train trips, and making it happen in next couple years)

Great Video from my favorite team....Planning a trip starting in Nova Scotia on The Ocean train going west to Montreal, then to Vancouver on The Canadian. Winter will be our time for travel based on availability of the class of service we have elected. So, your videos are fundamental for our planning...You're the greatest...Thanks so much.

Wow lovely breakfast buffet at the Double Tree! Thank you for your thorough videos! Really helpful!

You are right about the no real food on this train. You can get expensive snacks though!

This video gives a sense of what train 1 and the lesser publicised train 2 The Canadian are all about . The places on route make the journey all the better. I've done a Summer and Winter journey and they showed Canada 🇨🇦 off so well.

It would be nice if you could take train in the summer. The scenery is beautiful.

I need you guys to make this trip again spring/summer 😊this Michigander hates the cold 🥶 Seriously, looks like fun, I love Vancouver

We took this train from Toronto to Vancouver. It is the greatest train ride in the world.

Thanks for the wonderful trip!!! It was a great getaway!!!❤

I love watching you guys travel and I love trains. You are so careful to show us everything. I would enjoy traveling also but I am a senior on a fixed income. But I am saving up to go to Canada.

Comanici for sure, on the track how about Lasse Virén and Alberto Juantorena? Both double gold medalists.

this looks like it was so much fun. thank you both for sharing with us!!

Thank you for sharing. I'm going to enjoy this! Maybe too cold for me so this is a perfect way for me to enjoy the trip!😊 Ed. I have always enjoyed your relaxing music. However , the beat sound through Montreal has the opposite effect. It's probably just my screwed up brain. I'm really sorry but I had to mute. You do lovely edits!

Also too bad you did not stay at The Royal York Hotel that was right across the street, it is a really great hotel and awesome that it is such a short walk back to the Station.

You always have the best videos out here for travel especially amtrak and other train travel. I love how transparent you are on how much things cost it. Really helps when we're following behind you to go to some of these places.. Enjoy the journey and be safe along the way

Montreal is known for their smoked meat sandwiches and bagels and y'all decided to get tacos?! you could have also picked up a new Expos hat while you were there to replace the one you lost in Alaska 😁

Thanks a lot, Rob and Allie....now I want to go to Edmonton 😮

You're talking Christmas in Montreal but here in Wisconsin it's April 17, 2023. So, when was this video done, because your description states 3 hrs. ago.

Nice. I need to take me a train ride😂😂❤

Noticed that you did not or at least it seemed you did not utilize the area under the bed for some additional storage, there is space between the seats on floor that you can use as well, I did not notice it at first either when I was in a lower berth until after and it made it a little better in the bed area being able to use that space for smaller items

Not sure if anyone has mentioned it yet but you keep saying The Canadian from Montreal to Vancouver, The Canadian does not originate in Montreal nor does it even go in that direction. It starts in Toronto. The train between Montreal and Toronto if I am correct is called part of the Corridor trains.

Hey, any plans to travel Amtrak Silver Star anytime soon? Traditional Dining returned as of March 15th, minus the appetizer. My wife and I will be onboard April 30th. If you are, maybe we will get to meet you! 😊

I'm so glad you enjoyed our Canadian. Too bad there was a buffer car at the end, the view out that back door is amazing! How did you charge your devices, while on the train? I don't think the sleepers have power outlets or do they?

Hello both. This brought some memories of a trip I made on the Canadian 25 years ago. I did this with a tour company based in the UK. We landed in Ottawa, our first trip by train was to Toronto from Ottawa. Via rail ran out of food for mid day meal so they rung ahead and we had fast food delivered one stop later. After a couple of days in Toronto we took the Canadian to Jasper. I remember toping at Sioux Lookout and the loco was refuelled there. We stopped and got off at Jasper, luckily it was Canada’s celebration day so we saw plenty of fireworks. I was in Silver Class as it was known then. After a break in Jasper we caught the train to Prince Rupert with a hotel stop in Prince George. After one night in Prince Rupert and then the ferry to Port Hardy on Vancouver Island. After a break in Victoria it was on the island ferry to Vancouver airport and the trip home. Would love to do this in winter rather than summer, health stops me I’m afraid.

If you paid $90 each for the Montreal to Toronto route, you paid way too much. Can get it for half that by purchasing early and subscribing to Via Rail’s Tuesday discount newsletter.

Loved the extra long vlog! So relaxing and informative!

The only way I would go to Canada is in the middle of summer. It is way to cold for me any other time of the year

Nice video 😊

Also from his talk at the 19:22 mark of the video I assume is still in the Hockey Hall of Fame, his lips you can see are moving but no sound

We love your channel…this is not related to this post on Canada..we will be taking the Southern Chief from Albuquerque to LA…. Being new to this type of travel we want to ask you about Amtrak parking. I called Customer Service and they said that we can leave our car in public parking and walk a block to the train station. They said that Amtrak has no parking. Are you familiar with this issue? We will be doing a road trip from Pennsylvania to New Mexico and then continuing on with the Southern Chief.Thank you so much!

You might've been able to pick up a replacement Montreal Expos hat *in* Montreal! The vendor could've spent a bit of time chatting if s/he wasn't busy (or am I optimistic?)

Nadia perfect 10

Rob...I don't consider Tim Hortons a "real meal" but they do have good food though. I consider a real meal as one that you sit down at a table and wait staff.

76 Olympics standout Nadia Comaneci

Love the videos. What would you recommend, the eastbound or westbound Canadian for the best views?

I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT KIND OF CAMERAS DO YOU USE? THANK YOU.

Was it just my tablet playing up, or, was there no sound when Rob was talking when at Hockey Hall of fame or there abouts. He was by a window.

I'm confused. Before this I watched a video of Toronto to Vancouver and some was the same and some was different. Were these 2 trips or 1?

My question is -- Amtrak Empire Builder or the VIA Rail -- which has the prettier scenery?

Did you take this trip recently or was it around Christmas time? Wondering if the Christmas village is there year round.

was it cold in the cars.... Also didn't seem like many people on the train like you had it to yourselves.When did you actually travel

???Where did you guys travel from to get to Montreal, Canada. How many days did you stay in Montreal, Toronto, Winnipeg, Edmonton & Jasper. Also, is it cheaper to travel to Canada during the winter time. ❤😊

Love your videos, Rob & Allie ❤ What video editing program do you both use, by the way?

Hi, how much did you pay in Via Rail ticket from Montreal - Vancouver?

Rob, How was the Chocolate cheesecake? Also how was the Chocolate Torte?

Christmas in the Spring?

How do get the rooftop video?

Thank the $15,000 Chinese workers who came to Canada in the 1880's to build the railway for us to enjoy! It was dangerous work.

Bruce Jenner and Nadia Comidici

You needed far far more audio from your voices. I watched a Canadian Vlogger from Vancouver do this trip and he talked to the camera the entire time very little B-Roll with music which I found far more interesting. I have tried to watch this twice so far and yet to make it all the way through and the sleeper you were in I have traveled in as a kid with my parents had kids(2) above and parents(2) below in the same space you had the two of you.

Bruce Jenner?

Background music is annoying - detracts from the video

I’ve riden on this train cross country and would NEVER do it again. Horrible experience on Via Rail. 0/10 rating!
