Young man beside had hopped in wrong train. Mine was to Ottawa but he was headed for Montreal. The woman monitoring our car was very sympathetic and helpful. She directed to exit in Cobourg and his train would be waiting. She even radioed ahead for them to be aware of the upcoming transfer. Very impressive.
