A pocket of heavy rain showers happened to come across Sackville when the westbound overnight train to Montreal came in. Its messed up K1L13 surely added to the gloomy vibes. Thanks for Watching see you in the next one !

The tidal bore is a natural phenomena that occurs twice daily in the Memramcook River (seen here) and the Petitcodiac River as well as many other inlets tied to the Bay of Fundy. The Bay of Fundy sees the highest tides of the world where approximately 100 billion tonnes of water flow in and out everyday ! When the tide reaches the inlets witch are far narrower the powerful tides push up against...

    I was surprised at the length of the train. I counted 18 cars, 2 of them baggage/freight. I'm not familiar with train travel so a question. Is that a standard number of cars for the Halifax-Montreal run and what is the %age occupancy ?

    • @AlexFromCooks
      @AlexFromCooks 2 місяці тому

      Thats a pretty typical consist for the summer season it does get a little shorter for the winter exept for the holidays where we do see longer trains. I'm not sure about the age categories it does vary throughout the year back in the day it would often be used by university students but i'm assuming that must have gone down since service was cut back to 3 runs a week back in 2012

    @transittown7891 Рік тому

    Great catch my friend. I been on that train before, which is The Ocean train of Canada. And yes, I completely know all about the reliability issue Via Rail is facing due to freight train traffic. We need new dedicated passenger corridors across Canada so they don't have to run on shared tracks with freights. It's a big problem they're having right now. Canada's population is rapidly growing and we need new dedicated high speed and high frequency rail service corridors across the country

    • @AlexFromCooks
      @AlexFromCooks Рік тому

      Thanks ! I agree the ocean route takes a longer detour towards Northern NB & Quebec even if they where allowed to use the Napadogan sub it could cut a few hours with better track conditions but CN would never dream of that i'm sure lol be awhile before we see highspeed rail I think ! Would be nice to the Ocean return to full time service at least

      Yeah I pitched down the vocals for SOS at some point..
