The 19 hour journey from BC to Edmonton felt like 19 minutes in the end; thanks to the time keeping, appropriate refreshment breaks and trip updates from the drivers.

Great untilCalgary bus arrives at 6:30 am with 1 1/2 hr wait to continue journey to Edmonton. No place to have coffee or breakfast and a toilet that indicated no public use even if key is requested it is hardly adequate for a room full of people who have not been off bus for several hours
