Canadian Railroads > Via # 1 Into Kamloops BC May 11, 2022Date: 05/15/22 12:45 Via # 1 Into Kamloops BC May 11, 2022 Author: Train611 Hello to all,
A good looking Via #1 heading into at Kamloops on May11, 2022. First, we see the train approaching MP125 on the Clearwater Sub The second image sees the train approaching Tolko Mill near Heffley Creek beside Hwy # 5. And lastly the train is in the CN North Kamloops Yard approaching the station stop. On this evening the train arrived about 80 minutes early. Thanks for looking. 611    Date: 05/15/22 13:45 Re: Via # 1 Into Kamloops BC May 11, 2022 Author: Chessie Can't wait to get up there and ride again. Thanks for the photos.

I also worn newbies that it will forever ruin your wanting to ride Amtrak as the quality differential is hard to explain. Once you expreience the Canadian you'll be spoiled for life.

The downside is that there are only two trains a week (requiring 3 separate consists???) so it's easy to have long but infrequent trains.
