Favourite Rail Passenger Line
Posted by Anonymous on Tuesday, May 30, 2006 11:06 AM
Does anyone here have a particular favourite rail passenger line they have[?]

I've done the B.C. Rail line from North Vancouver to Prince George return. Great scenery the whole way especially along Howe Sound. The engineering feat around Seton & Elizabeth Lakes is something to behold.

I've travelled along the VIA route on both CN & CP main lines. Once in the mountains the wilderness is magnificent. VIA's route between Terrace & Prince Rupert is hard to beat as the train travels along the Skeena River.

But my own favourite is the E&N Dayliner between Victoria & Courtenay return. A great day trip & I found the quaintness of this route unmatched.
