Via Rail is having another sale, with 50% off travel in sleeper, sleeper plus, and touring classes. This means that the Skeena in touring class is only $239. Sale ends on 6/19, travel by 9/30.

The Skeena from Vancouver-Prince Rupert is still THAT expensive even with the discounts? That is crazy! Toronto to Vancouver is a much better deal IMO!
Thanks. I am hoping to be able to do a round trip on the Ocean in early September.

Correct, if you are writing it in French, it's........ l'Océan. In English, it's just the Ocean.

You get there on the 6th while I fly out of there on the 4th. If you happen to pass by New York on the way back let me know. Maybe we can meet up again and I can tease you about your seven layers again, :lol: but we can at least have a drink together somewhere by Penn Station like the last time.Weeellll.....

What an odd thought, that the value of a scenic railroad is in proportion to its mileage. Do you actually think that St. Paul - Minot is a better deal than Denver - Grand Junction, because the former route is 200 miles longer?
