In the Dome – Vancouver to Jasper on VIA Rail’s Canadian



On Tuesday, May 28th, I boarded VIA train #2, The Canadian, at Pacific Central Station in Vancouver, BC. I had a “Cabin for One” roomette in car #220 “Cameron Manor”. Our train was doubled over at the station, with the coach section on Track #4 and the sleeper section on Track #5. We boarded at 7:30 PM, put the train together at 8:00 PM, and departed on time at 8:30 PM. Our train had two rebuilt F40PH locomotives and 20 cars, including four domes and a panorama car. I rode from Vancouver, BC to Jasper, AB. I was impressed with the service and the equipment. The food in the dining car was excellent and the staff was very understanding.
