VIA Rail Moncton Ottawa recent customer reviews

I didn’t enjoy the fact that we had to stop before Montreal because the train could not go further. We had to wait for almost 3 hours for the bus to arrive and take us to Montreal. Also from the train from Montreal to Ottawa, the hostess mandated I and my son to completely use the phone on silent when my son is just a 5yrs old that dwells on the tablet to be quiet. I liked the cleanliness and also the fact that we were given $18 voucher for meal after the delay
