It's nice to see train videos where I live!

Any railway footage from Ontario like London or Toronto?

just wondering in the modern day since like with the Vermonter route which used to run to Canada but cut but to the US border like this one and since they're trying to restore service on that route. Do you think it makes sense to go through the work of restoring service from Chicago to Toronto? Rail wise it all there and safe and both Amtrak and via runs trains right up to the foot of the tunnel. Would the whole legal process be worth it? Cause I could see a charger and few superliners running the line

The demand for Chicago to Toronto rail service is absolutely there, the sticking points would be making sure they can improve the security/border patrol process to get passengers adequately and properly vetted before crossing the border. (And to make sure the process doesn’t take too long. That affects travel time for sure.) The only other big obstacle is politics; the current presidential administration probably wouldn’t want to consider this train coming back, despite it being at the border with Canada, not Mexico.
