Award Winning
"Silver and Blue" Class of Service
"Our land-cruising experience
with its award-winning service is "luxury on rails". Cozy private rooms and semi-private compartments lead to the
acclaimed "Park Car" which is exclusively reserved for "Silver
and Blue" passengers. You'll savor
time in the Bullet Lounge enclosed by its wraparound windows. Above is the
popular 360 degree scenic dome and below, the intimate Mural Lounge, famous for
its Canadian art collection. Wherever your assigned sleeping quarters may
be, there is a Skyline car nearby with a scenic dome, a lounge and dining
room. The dining car provides another great place to sit back, wine
and dine and enjoy watching the spectacular scenery roll by. |
We offer
three types of sleeping accommodation - Layout
