VIA Rail Valemount Edmonton recent customer reviews
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 Additionally, in some stations, the waiting areas felt a bit outdated or lacking in amenities.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.

The people were great but I would have loved to have a way of knowing I didn’t have to sit outside in the rain and wait 2.5hrs for my train. I don’t mind waiting but wish I could have done it from home
