VIA Rail Canada Train Journeys & Vacations - Part One: The Ocean (Halifax to Montreal)

VIA Rail Canada Train Journeys: PART ONE 'THE OCEAN"

Introduction to 'The Ocean' train, travelling through Halifax, the Maritimes along many stunning coastal routes before arriving in Montreal.

Continue Watching with Part Two: The Corridor (Montreal to Toronto).
................................................................................­..............

The brief for our films was to show the UK sales teams & customers what it is really like to travel with Via Rail, so the customers know exactly what they see is what they get, unlike misleading big budget 'polished' promotional videos. This 'real experience' approach was exactly what VIA Rail Canada were after.

Since completing this film VIA have not only distributed to sales teams and customers throughout the UK but across the world, including South America, Australia, Europe and Canada!

Written, Directed, Presented & Edited by Joe Jamieson

i swear ive heard of joe jamieson on top gear. jeremy said it.

[GottaGoPromo]

@Lifty4ever Really? I'm pretty sure I haven't seen or heard it!

[WhiteSugarFive]

I don't want to be mean, but shouldn't we have Canadians doing this, not people from the UK.

[GottaGoPromo]

@WhiteSugarFive Can we just say that we were approached to produce this and our other fims for VIA on behalf of their British & European sales & training teams so that they could see what they were promoting. VIA do a lot of Canadian promotion but our films have gone a lot further a field than originally intended. Another is in the pipeline! We must say every trip has been incredible, Canada and the Canadian people are sublime to be around so please don't feel too annoyed we're making them!
