One note about the Prestige class: the $10,000 price Vancouver to Toronto is for two people. And the price includes free alcoholic beverages for the entire trip. I am not a drinker but when I traveled Prestige class Toronto to Vancouver, I had a list: Ten cocktails you must try before you die and over the 5 day trip I enjoyed all 10 of them. I think the bar-tending staff had as much fun with the list as I did because on their recommendation we substituted a few of the drinks.

Your videos are very enjoyable to watch and I love reading your witty comments. I also love that you say Thank You For the Food after every meal. It is very polite, almost Canadian polite :)

I did this wonderful journey from Vancouver to Montreal with my late husband in 1981. We had 3 stopovers in Banff, Calgary & Winnipeg. Unforgettable memories of a trip of a lifetime. Fantastic way to enjoy a beautiful country. Thank you Canada, I recommend 100% your train service.

The best video for introvert people. Ease the anxiety to ride a train like this. And covered all the details in a calm but humorous manner ❤

@susanredmayne1996 2 years ago

A lovely video! As a Canadian, I am always thrilled when someone visits from abroad and gets a chance to admire our beautiful country. I hope you felt safe and were treated well during your journeys here!!!❤

I suffer from a ton of sometimes crippling anxiety. The calming nature of your videos has been so soothing. You have me wanting to take a long train trip by myself. Love from California <3

I visited Canada in 1974, only Toronto, but i loved the people and the country. I have always said that if i came into serious money, i would travel across Canada on the Canadian. Canadians and New Zealanders have a shared past, and are brothers.

with that price tag i would have expected a lot more of the "snacks" options.

I like the long pauses on the specifics, like food, menu, and such ….it gives me time to pause and pick out my meal choices👀🇺🇸🕊

You must take this trip again in the winter months .The scenery is twice as beautiful with all the snow on the ground and mountains .😊

Worked as a roadie in Canada in 1979…. The band I worked for did a trans Canadian tour from Toronto to Vancouver & every where inbetween….they flew,we drove…phew,what a drive that was…..epic !! I’m 71 now….still think about it. One of the best things I’ve ever done . I love Canada & the Canadians 🇬🇧❤️🇨🇦

moments with strangers are only as awkward as we make them!! break the ice with a smile, pleasant conversation, the tension disappears!! i’ve done it plenty of times, just the other night at Hibachi i was speaking with strangers about past vacations & their upcoming cruise!

Dang. 93 hour journey. Kudos to the individuals who built the railroad.

That’s twice you were on a train here in Vancouver that drove right by my office window. You can imagine me waving at you. I had an identical room when I moved west 35 years ago from back east and took the train.

Seeing the "Last Spike" photo in the video, capturing the moment the final nail was hammered into the railway, I couldn't help but reflect deeply. The photo, filled with the faces of white men, strikingly lacks the presence of any Chinese individuals. It's a stark reminder of the forgotten sacrifices in our history. Over 600 Chinese laborers are estimated to have lost their lives constructing this railway, yet their contributions seem to be missing from this iconic moment. It's a poignant reminder that history often tells only part of the story, and it's up to us to remember and honor all those who have shaped our past, not just the ones who were captured in the photographs. Canada's railways should consider adding a historical description next to such photos to remind the world to not forget and to be inclusive of all who contributed.

always good to see your train travels mr kuga-san. i would travel only if i can have the solo compartment room and was wondering if the train crew would allow me to just take my breakfast, lunch and dinner to my room or i have to eat at the table because im the type that just likes to eat solo with no disturbances social distance style. KEEP ON TRAVELING EVERYONE AND BE SAFE OUT THERE🚅✈🛫🚌🚗

Thank you for taking me on this lovely train trip with you. I think it is very kind of you to thank the cow for your beef food! Your positive attitude about everything is so refreshing, because it seems nowadays that people mostly like to complain. I hope you do videos of the other two sleeper trains you mentioned.

I live in Winnipeg. I’ve been subscribed to your channel for a while. I can’t believe you came to Winnipeg! 🤣 Nobody comes to Winnipeg 😂

The steam locomotive in Jasper never hauled the Canadian. The Canadian was a Canadian Pacific train that went through Banff. The CN locomotive you saw in Jasper hauled different trains on the Canadian National route that the current Canadian follows. The Canadian switched routes from the Banff route in 1990.
