Montréal-Halifax train – Description

The Montréal-Halifax train travels at sunsetAs the train departs from Montréal in the evening, you’ll watch the sun set over fertile farmlands carpeting the southern shores of the St. Lawrence River and the Matapédia Valley.

The Ocean covers hundreds of kilometres while you slumber so that upon waking, your eyes alight upon Chaleur Bay in all its misty, early-morning glory. After breakfast, you wander to the Park car to learn about lobster traps, ghost ships and Acadian traditions.

You could get used to this rhythm!

The Montréal-Halifax train makes an overnight journey along the St. Lawrence River before crossing the provinces of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia.
