Well the wife and I just returned from traveling across Canada By Via from Toronto CDA to Jasper CDA and then by The Rockey Mountaineer to Vancouver CDA. All I can say about the trip was that it was excellent. The staff of the VIA were there for you at every turn and the meals were excellent. Everything on the Rockey Mountaineer was First Class and above from the Staff to all the meals served (WOW how do they do it). Really enjoy the scenery throught Northern Ontario and the flat lands of the Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. Love Jasper area so peaceful and the mountains of Alberta and British Columbia, what can I say but beautiful.We arrived in Vancouver just after the riots after the Stanley Cup Final. Saw some windows boarded up, but the rest of the area was cleaned up by the city and local volunteers. "GREAT JOB GUYS " . It sure was the trip of a life time, met so many fine people from all over the world, especially a couple from New Zealand, Brian and Lynn. Brian's grandson is interested in trains so I told Brian to keep in touch and I will help them out no matter what scale they choose to model. Well by for now.
