The Great Canadian Train Ride (preview)

Join Doug Jones, one of America's foremost travelog producers, on the most spectacular long haul rail journey of the world! In 1955 the Canadian Pacific inaugurated the "Canadian", a new train designed to offer the ultimate in rail luxury. It was then, and remains today, one of the longest rail journeys of the world. After years of constant use, VIA Rail took on the daunting task of completely restoring all the original 1855 stainless steel equipment including the bullet lounge Park Cars, the observation dome cars, the dining cars and bedroom cars. The newly restored equipment was then put back into service on the beautiful northern route of the old Super Continental. The result of this giant project is captured in this film.
