VIA Rail Canada User Reviews
VIA Rail Canada receives praise for its courteous and professional staff, as well as clean facilities. Many travelers appreciate the comfortable seating and overall pleasant experience. However, some reviews mention delays in train schedules and issues with overly cold air conditioning settings. Additionally, a few passengers noted concerns about luggage fees and ticketing processes needing improvement.
Overall, my experience with VIA Rail was positive and memorable. I enjoyed the smooth and comfortable ride, especially compared to driving long distances. The seating was spacious, and I appreciated the ability to move around freely, relax, and enjoy the scenic views through the large windows. The staff on board were friendly and professional, creating a welcoming atmosphere. One of the highlights was the dining car (if applicable), which offered decent meal options and a chance to meet other travelers. The onboard Wi-Fi was helpful for staying connected, although it did have some occasional slow spots in rural areas. On the downside, there were a few things I didn’t enjoy as much. Delays at times were frustrating, especially when they weren’t clearly communicated. The ticket prices can also be on the higher side if not booked well in advance. Additionally, in some stations, the waiting areas felt a bit outdated or lacking in amenities. Overall, though, VIA Rail provided a pleasant and relaxing travel experience, and I would definitely consider using it again for future trips across Canada.

What I did not love is that I arrived early and was hoping to switch to an earlier train, however the VIA Rail customer service helper was not able to because only Budsbud (third party through which I bought the ticket) is able to. However, when I tried calling the number given, I was just on hold and never reached anyone. Additionally I had paid for an option to have flexibility to modify the ticket time, however this should not be an option if I cannot actually access this service.

My daughter really enjoyed the trip last year to new hazelton, so we did it again this year, I’ll definitely be riding with VIA Rail again.

Train people were very nice but train was delayed almost an hour.

I enjoyed my return trip on train 62; it was more comfortable, spacious, and cleaner. The delay of over an hour before I arrived in Toronto was frustrating
