I bet $10 a consortium including Bechtel wins.

They do. If you're flying on Air Canada (for example Kingston to Toronto), and your flight gets delayed/cancelled, then you can call up VIA and trade in your plane ticket for a ticket on VIA for the same origin/destination pair. VIA is also partners with Access Rail allowing people to book...

MIght as well fly... There's a reason why airlines still work for longer journies in Eurasia despite extensive rail service being available.

If you have Transsee premium, there's a location history function that shows you a history of the speed and location of a train under "View Route Tracking History". I cancelled my premium, so unfortunately I can't tell you.

Ask for a subway emergency transfer if you're on the subway, or ask the operator for an emergency "magic" transfer if you're on a bus.

I think they could have achieved something better painting a bus lane like Rapid TO and taking a month at most to finish construction. Rather than reconstructing the entire loop over three years.

For what it's worth, there's a bus loop already, they built it when they decided to rebuild Dundas Street. They did this because they wanted to make Dundas Street a destination. In reality, it had the opposite effect. People taking the bus would often pop into the Tim Hortons, McDonald's...

Also, thanks for pointing out the Hostelling International discount. If I didn't already have my Western discount, and I was someone who was scared to use a corporate discount without the proper ID, and I expected to take VIA around 20 more times in my life, the lifetime membership would be a...

Yeah, all I was saying was that VIA whether intentionally or not caused people to trade up from Economy to Business, or not take some entirely different mode, thereby increasing revenues, through use/misuse of the corporate code program. And that any service manager seriously enforcing...

Yes, I have this as well. The problem is that the alumni discount code is the same, and they're eligible. Also the student and staff ID are the same, and some students are staff (like me), so it's impossible to actually enforce, so they don't. Also, when somone boards without a ticket, the...

The worst I've seen is that they get told to have it next time. According a service manager, a fare difference may be charged, but the code is only valid on non-escape fares which generally make money for VIA, so they don't care. Additionally I've never seen to happen. They tend to check CN/CP...

This is a table of staff/student/alumni discount codes for the U15 group of universities plus some others. If you are travelling to/from where these schools are located 90% of the time, the service manager won't ask for ID. Enjoy! P.S. It's mildly amusing that Western, Queen's, and McGill...

😱This was supposed to be done last year.

Anywhere with a Farhi sign.

Although VIA Trains may be scheduled to stop at a station, if there aren't any ticketed passengers expected to depart from the station, they don't stop. The smaller stations in SWO (Ingersoll/Glencoe), are literally a shack, a gravel parking lot (completely unmanned and park at your own risk...
