Review of Silver & Blue The New Spirit of VIA Rails The Canadian DVD

SILVER & BLUE
Make contact with the land.... with others...with yourself. Invest three days between Vancouver and Toronto making friends from your hometown and halfway around the world. Socialize in the park car. Scan the rocky crags for deer, elk, mountain sheep. Feast on Arctic char. Watch your headlight pierce a black tunnel portal in the Fraser Canyon. Snooze in cozy comfort as snow swirls right outside your window. Experience THE CANADIAN.

In late April, 1994, winter grudgingly relents her grip on the Dominion. Sample highlights of a round-trip trek, together with a bit of history, interior details, service preparations, an engineer's perspective, and city views enroute. If you have made the journey, this hour will serve as a springboard for some great memories: But if you have not yet been privileged to ride, let this be your introduction to a legend reborn: THE CANADIAN!
