Canadian Railroads > A VIA scheduling questionDate: 09/10/24 07:53 A VIA scheduling question Author: march_hare With the upcoming renewal of Amtrak service into Montreal, I've been thinking of making a trip.
Priority would be a one day round trip Montreal-Toronto-Montreal. Ideally, I'd like to ride Budd equipment in one direction and LRC equipment in the other. Does anybody see an easy way to do this? Date: 09/11/24 12:45 Re: A VIA scheduling question Author: DrawingroomA Until VIA switched to a "new and improved" system it was fairly easy to get the type of consist for every train from the booking page. That feature is gone. On an enthusiasts site a member kindly created a chart showing type of equipment. I am unable to link that, but a quick perusal shows that a Montreal-Toronto same-day round trip will be on LRC equipment both ways.
People in Toronto wishing to ride a HEP-2 consist one-way to Montreal have more luck as the first two trains of the day are HEP-2 equipment. |
