I took a sleeper train across the country. I learned Via Rail is still stuck in the twentieth century

when i was in the UK, i took a train from london to Glasgow. train was >200kph, and, without exaggeration, as quiet as a library.

Arrived 15 minutes before it left, had a beer on it, was in glasgow in no time. Highly recommended.

as an expat, it can be mixed though. If you rely on it for commuting and travel at rush hour, it’s just a different kind of hell.
