The Prime Minister, Mark Carney, announced that, for the first time in four decades, VIA Rail passenger cars will be built in Canada. The federal government is investing more than $4.7 billion for VIA Rail to acquire and maintain 313 new passenger rail cars from Alstom Canada.
it’s both.
Via is a shit service. yes, please charge me $200 for a 10 hour trip during which I will be knocking knees and playing footsie with the person across from me, with less space than an airplane seat has. I can’t wait for the privilege
nah dude I’ll just drive for the same cost, less time, more flexibility, and more cargo capacity
That description fits perfectly on the Deutsche Bahn as well lol
