VIA Rail’s celebrated Corridor Service—connecting Toronto, Ottawa, and Montreal—is undergoing a major upgrade, with new train sets enhancing comfort, accessibility, and sustainability. Learn more about the fleet transformation here.
As winter approaches, we’re spotlighting The Canadian Train, which operates year-round with twice-weekly departures. This legendary transcontinental journey offers a truly unique experience for AU/NZ travellers—gliding through snow-draped landscapes and the majestic Canadian Rockies from the comfort of sleeper cabins and domed viewing cars.
Jonathan Hume, Owner and CEO of International Rail, says, “We have seen a surge in interest for Canadian rail experiences, especially among travellers seeking immersive, scenic journeys. VIA Rail’s offerings—particularly in winter—are unlike anything else, and we are thrilled to bring these to our trade partners across Australia and New Zealand.”
