VIA operations update: All trains operating despite winter storm conditions

TORONTO – With a winter storm hitting the Ontario and Quebec region and forecasts of heavy snowfall mixed with freezing rain expected to continue over the next few days wreaking havoc on the highways and impacting other modes of transportation, VIA Rail Canada advises that all trains in the Windsor – Québec City corridor region are operating as normal.  As the storm continues to make its presence felt, VIA expects demand for seats to quickly increase.

As a result of the heavy snowfall some VIA trains may experience minor delays of between 30 to 60 minutes.
VIA will add cars where possible to meet the increased demand. Passengers are therefore advised to book as early as possible and to verify departure and arrival times.

Information and reservations are available at viarail.ca, at 888 VIA-RAIL (888 842-7245), TTY 800-268-9503 (hearing impaired), or through your travel agent.

Customers can also use VIA ticket kiosks to avoid lengthy line-ups or driving and parking stresses associated with inclement weather. Ticket kiosks are located in the following Corridor locations: Québec, Ste-Foy, Montréal, Dorval, Ottawa, Fallowfield, Kingston, Belleville, Cobourg, Oshawa, Toronto, Oakville, Aldershot, Brantford, Guelph, Kitchener, London and Windsor.

VIA sincerely regrets any inconvenience these delays may cause to its passengers.
