The Canadian

4466km, 82 hours, 4 time zones, one train, huge amounts of food, and incredible vistas - that's The Canadian, Canada's flagship train. It's very much like a cruise liner on rails.

Waking up to sunrise in a train that is just beginning to cross the Rocky Mountains is hard to beat. Even more unbeatable: The weather. Peaks that are only cloud-free for less than ten days per year were perfectly visible. And by night, the moonlit, snowy Saskatchewan plains are a serene sight.
