Canadian Rail Travel Guide
Author: hoggerdoug

Not making a "plug" for this publication, received a copy recently and it sure is a comprehensive guide to train travel in Canada, mainline, tourist and shortline stuff, interesting read to say the least. Doug

Sorry but I just have to pose a cynical question; is it a pamphlet?

A 160 page book (two seconds with Google and I knew what it was!)

Is this a successor to the wonderful 1980s guide by conductor Bill Coo? Mr Coo created a milepost by milepost guide to Via travel. One chapter for each route.
