I must say, you made my Wednesday much better. I am going to hate to see when this trip is over, and Your and Mike's "Bromance" ends. I hope you guys continue to do videos together. You are so uplifting and positive in your Mindset and it spreads to others. Thank you for the experience, and I can't wait for the next video! 🚂🚂🚂

[@Sprouht]

Thanks so much Rick! Mike and I will have to continue this bromance in another country!

[@billgoeckel6344]

That was awesome Will ! Really love the way you connect with everyone. The world needs more people like you. Keep up the great work. Hope all is well with you. Cheers

[@Sprouht]

Thanks very much Bill!

[@spbtch]

Thank you! Totally loving your videos as I've wanted to come to Canada (from the UK) for a while now! Keep having fun! And thanks once again x

[@andrewkast4087]

Great video! The world needs more kind and fun-loving people like you guys! Thanks for posting this video and of course looking forward to more!

[@Sprouht]

Thanks so much Andrew!

[@alien_may_in_Canada]

It's so fun and there's a lot of information. I was planning a train trip and it was very helpful. thanks.

[@peakfall1748]

Hey man really loved the video I’ve been watching for quite a while now and I’m very pleased to see how much you’ve grown your channel, you’re vids are incredibly professional and your dedication is really admirable. honestly you help to inspire people with following what they truly want to do. You’re truly the next yes theory and I can’t wait to see what comes next

[@Sprouht]

Thanks bro. Those words mean a lot to me!

[@BeardGangDaveee]

awesome video! I really enjoyed it. really looking forward to the next!

[@Sprouht]

Thanks Dave!

[@colinbarrett3016]

Loved your video. I did the Toronto to Edmonton. Met so many great people and the food was fantastic.

[@truenorthoffgrid367]

Cool video, thanks for sharing!

[@travel2behappy197]

I did the journey in September 2021 from Toronto to Vancouver and captured it on the video (playlist on my channel). Thank you for bringing back the memories 🙂. Great recording btw with Mr. DownieLive 😀

[@sammy7068]

aww love the video u made me smile as u took the train in humoris ways love it

[@kathynichols6602]

This was great and refreshing. You guys a good buds.

[@jancatperson8329]

I am so envious of this segment of your trip. Years ago, my (now-ex) husband and I traveled by train from Toronto to Ottawa, then to Quebec City, and then backtracked to Montreal on our honeymoon (the backtracking was necessary because we flew into Toronto and back home from Montreal). As much as I loved seeing the cities, the train travel ranked right up there among memorable events from that trip. My favorite train activity? Looking out the window and watching the towns and countryside. So many interesting things to see. One of these days, once the plague is over, I'll do something like that again.

[@HighOnLifeInCanada]

This is an epic video of a train journey I have ever seen. It was so engaging and entertaining while covering the features of the train. Super awesome story telling. Great work, keep it up.

[@Sprouht]

Thanks so much man!

[@canadamaisqueumsonho]

THE BEST VIDEO EVER! Congrats, Will! Every single video is better than the other! AWESOME JOURNEY!

[@Sprouht]

Thank you so so much guys!

[@sherinsayrany2699]

I laughed so much during that video, so well made, so creative, i loved this!!! also looked so fun. Booking my next trip on VIA rail ASAP

[@Sprouht]

Hahahah thanks Sherin

[@LifeOfNigh]

I did the train from Edmonton to Truro in 2003. It was amazing back then, even without a sleeper. I loved all the stops we made, took tons of photos. Took me almost a week to get home including the bus to the ferry then the ferry then the bus home. LOL.

[@RedHillian]

Always here for the long-distance & sleeper train content! Thanks for the ride-along Sprouht, always good to see what you make of the places you find.

[@Sprouht]

Thanks very much Tom!

[@dougbrowning82]

Economy class on this train isn't bad, either. At least for shorter trips (Winnipeg to Saskatoon), pre-Covid. You ride at the front end of the train, behind the baggage car. Yes, the Canadian offers checked luggage, subject to size and weight limits. The front Skyview dome car is for Economy, and it also has a lounge and cafe. When live cooked meals are available, they are very good, and served in take out style packaging so you can take it back to your seat. The coach seats are roomy and quite comfortable, and can be set to full lounge mode. There are tray tables and outlets for every seat, and there is even family seating available. Sleeping is possible, with the sleeping essentials kit, available at the snack bar. It contains a small blanket, inflatable neck pillow, blindfold, and earplugs. Pre-Covid, they had live entertainment daily in the lounge. These cars were actually built by the Budd company for the Canadian Pacific Railway in 1955, and refurbished by VIA Rail in 1990. Those showers were originally porter's cabins. If you look by your bedroom door, you will find a small compartment where you could leave your shoes, for collection by the porter for shining, back in the day.

[@patchesmunchkin]

Another great video! Mike and you make such a great pair, too. Hold onto that mindset!

[@Sprouht]

Thanks man!

[@kenbuddybuddy2005]

You two make me laugh!!!! So enjoy your videos!!!! Many thanks!!!

[@ap94131]

Beautiful scenery...but the dance party was just the best. Thank you so much for posting this for us all to see and enjoy.

[@Sprouht]

Thanks very much Allan!

[@Shello58]

Now THIS is a 2fer I didn't know I needed until now!! 🇨🇦👍😁 More please!

[@Sprouht]

Soon!

[@tylerjing]

Incredible video as usual! Your content and philosophy truly stands out from the rest. The dancing segment was a treat -- loved how you turned strangers into friends in such a fun way 😀 Also, I believe VIA Rail is getting an awesome new fleet of trains, looking forward to that!

[@Sprouht]

Thanks very much Tyler! I loved making the dancing segment as much as you liked watching it!

[@GSino]

Nice work! Greetings from Greece! Watched it all :)

[@Sprouht]

Thanks George!

[@pruittiii]

Great video. Nothing like traveling in a sleeper and being lulled by the gentle swaying of the train.

[@Sprouht]

Thanks Bill!

[@theflipside_63]

Will definitely try this hopefully by this year🙏Great video as always. Can’t wait for the next episode

[@Sprouht]

Thanks very much!

[@SantannaMa]

This video make me want to travel across some cities with my mom, thanks for this

[@michaelformaini7053]

G'day from downunder. Great to see both you and Mike on this segment of travelling across Canada. Looking forward to ongoing episodes and more of Mike's input from his TV series over the next month or so. As Mike might tell you, I have been following his channel since the start of the pandemic and have survived living in the most locked down city in the world, Melbourne. I have followed some of your channel too during this difficult time and, yeah, I agree that the best feature of long distance train travel is the opportunity to switch off from the digital world and concentrate on forging friendships with fellow travellers as well as enjoy the passing scenery. Thanks for posting this clip and hope you are safe and well. Cheers from Michael.

[@Sprouht]

Thanks so much Michael. Hang in there my friend. The end is coming 🙏🏻

[@yourtravelswithbruce]

You guys MUST get Via's marketing award. The Dance section was AMAZING

[@Sprouht]

Thanks Bruce!

[@michaelbozzini900]

Need to get a trip soon. Need it when things are better.

[@Darkcrowman]

My first time seeing your channel, and I have to say that, well, thanks for being just a kind and friendly guy, both of you. I've watched a lot of your counterparts videos before, and it took me here, and surprise, it was awesome. I'm going to watch a bunch more now :) thanks again for proving that being friendly and kind, and fun, aren't a bad thing. Throw away your malice!

[@Sprouht]

Thanks so much Beau. What a compliment!

[@Metestasio66]

Brilliant vlog!! I hope VIA Rail comped you guys for this trip afterwards. You so totally outdid any promo video they've ever done. 🙂

Another great video. I know 36 hrs on a train is long but you guys seemed to handle every the right way. You made new friends & had a dance party! Can't get better than that. Congrats gentlemen! You made my Wednesday. I love & hate you guys!🤣 Many blessings to u both & as always stay healthy & safe.

What a fun video. Makes me want to take an overnight train journey. If I may say so also, you are easy on the eyes.

[@Sprouht]

Thanks bud!

[@neil1030]

@@Sprouht The scenes from the shower and in bed caught my attention.... Beyond that aspect, it was great seeing a little video of Toronto, which I visited decades ago and to which I would like to return. Going up in the CN Tower was incredible. Their train station looks very much like the one in Philadelphia, and is similar to Union Station in New Haven CT.

[@stuntmanstu1000]

No idea who you guys are, but have subscribed! Very entertaining and will also check out that food at Metro!

[@Sprouht]

pardon my ignorance, but; is Canada's VIA roughly similar to U.S.A. Amtrak?

Real class ball hat on backwards,in deluxe dining car,way to go dudes.

Just wait until we do the ride again but in tuxedos. Coming in March.

the train trip is amazing but have to correct you a little on the end of the train car, it is called the Park car, lounge car is the one part ways up with another dome area

[@Sprouht]

That’s crazy! What a small world.

[@gschroep]

@@Sprouht Very very small world. We were on the end of Oct. It was the most relaxing vacation we've had in years. Because you're unplugged and forced to relax.

Try 45 hours 20 minutes from city to city, Perth to Adelaide and another 29 from Adelaide to Sydney! great clip though.

[@IrishAstronomy2001]

I'd probably be bored as hell on that ride, I'd prefer to take a plane. However I still want to experience it.

[@Sprouht]

It's all about the experience/shift in perspective. It won't be boring if you hop onboard with the right mindset ;)

We took this from Toronto to Vancouver. Greatest train ride in the world.

[@Bobrogers99]

It was probably a good move to not share a cabin. ;-). The Canadian seems to offer a tad more than Amtrak, and you seemed to appreciate the amenities. I think your energy added to the train experience of other passengers!

[@Og_Mango]

Damnit CN Rail, you pay for my trip to Winnipeg for me becoming a conductor and you have me FLY out there… this would have been so fun to do!

[@johnp139]

You have TWO CHAIRS because they are built for TWO PEOPLE!

Nerves of steel. I'm not shy, but I don't think I'd have the guts of glory to break out in a dance in front of people I barely know like that. High five for being courageous man! :)

I hope you know, those passenger cars you road were from the old days. Those cars were built in the 1940’s & 1950’s

Yup! We spoke about that in the dining car.

[@balleticbodybuilder]

How much did this cost?

[@j2simpso]

Wow, J.J. you've really been taken a lot of trains recently! Well, I say good on ya. Following Canadian politics right now with all the turmoil caused by COVID is not fun and I'll be the first to tell you that anything you can do to get your mind away from it is a good idea!

Vancouver to Montreal is probably doubly longer, and you go through the Rockies.

It’s not the longest train in Canada “per say” there’s freight trains almost 2 miles long , typically passenger trains are pretty short compared to most freights
