When they say its a long drive across the pond, they really mean it.
Longest I've done is Toronto to Montreal overnight though we took it in turns
behind the wheel. Not sure I could have done it on my own in one go.


To change the terms again, isn't there quite a decent train that does
that route?


I've done Montreal-Toronto, it's mostly LRC coaches, though the original
power cars are now long gone. It's fast for Canadian train standards, but
that's not saying much.

To get back on topic, aren't the carriages on that train part of the
NightStar trains that were sold to VIA when they decided not to run
Eurostar to the regions (via London - hence on topic!)


Is there still a sleeper service on that route? I thought the nightstar
stock tends to go out on the Ocean (Montreal - Halifax).
