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

We wanted to do a train elopment in Canada, needed to book 10+ months early and was gonna cost us 14k to cross the country one way with a two person sleeper.

Oh if we just wanted to cross the country on the train it will still be 1k one way each for a seat.

Train travel here is a joke, i just wanna take trains without having to worry about it costing an arm and a leg along with knowing there’s a high chance I’ll get stuck somewhere waiting as via doesn’t have right of way.
