Canadian Railroads > Canadian on time!Date: 01/19/17 08:30 Canadian on time! Author: viatrainrider It appears the Canadian, Train 1 is on time at Winnipeg and eastbound Train 2 is mostly on time at Watrous today and seem to recall Train 1 at Vancouver on time yesterday. Also 693 on time at Churchill after some major disruptions.
Now some have been hit on the passenger board for providing info on on time trains or slightly late. Not even news we need to know, they say. But during recent very extreme weather VIA has had some hard days being even close to on time so I think it is reasonably big news that now all western VIA trains are on time in more normal winter weather. So we'll see if those trains stay on time! Date: 01/19/17 13:56 Re: Canadian on time! Author: irhoghead Canadians everywhere are celebrating Hunter Harrison leaving Canada. All trains will now run on time.
Date: 01/19/17 19:57 Re: Canadian on time! Author: greasemonkey So much for being on time. Number 1 is currently 2 hours and 26 mins late, and number 2 is 6 hours and 44 minutes late.
Brian Date: 01/20/17 05:21 Re: Canadian on time! Author: DrawingroomA I had my suspicions that the site was once again not working for numbers 1 & 2. It was unlikely that both trains would be on time to the minute at all stops shown.

Date: 01/20/17 07:34 Re: Canadian on time! Author: andersonb109 With so much padding in the schedule, they should be on time all the time. VIA 1 used to leave Toronto at around 9:00AM. Now it leaves a full 10 hours earlier and still can't make the schedule. Shame on CN for their treatment of this train.
