Ottawa, Sept 26 (NITN): Canada is a treasure trove waiting to be explored. What better way than to explore this magnificent country than by rail. It is an experience almost as iconic as the landscape itself. Get on the train and, instantly be transported to a different world instantly, a realm where you can admire the timeless Canadian landscape unfolding outside the window.
To experience the 'real' Canada, the vast distances, the picturesque landscapes, the topography changes from one part of this immense country to the next; nothing beats traveling by train and what better way to Go Green-while you traverse the great Canadian landscape.
VIA Rail now boasts of an all new " Canadian Experience" with several improvements and modifications done to vastly improve the travel experiences of guest traveling on VIA.
Improvements include new specially prepared menus with locally sourced food and wines that is served to our guests.
The food and wine service is accompanied with performances by home grown artists and musicians on board.
"New tastes are accompanied by new looks as well our recently refurbished business class cars (Economy Class to follow soon). The new seating configuration in our refurbished cars will allow more efficiency in service, additional departures and enhanced schedules," an official statement said.
