VIA Rail Canada is the passenger traffic part of the nationalised railroads system of Canada. Technically it is a crown owned company, founded in 1977 when Canadian National CN got rid of all of its passenger services. VIA Rail operates over 500 trains stopping at 378 stations.

This is a VIA Rail Canada passenger service led by a recently refurbished locomotive no.6434 of the type F40PH-2. The picture has been taken near Jasper, Alberta, by Timothy Stevens on 13.2.2011.

VIA Rail locomtive no.906 has just brought a fast passenger train into the Toronto Union street station. The coaches are a fixed rack of Talgo coaches. That's a Spanish patent. The coaches are a bit shorter than normal and they do not have normal bogies at all, just one axle between each of two coaches. Needless to say, it's a totally fixed set, one cannot add or remove any individual coaches from the train without a visit to a major workshop. The huge locomotive seen here, no.906, is a P42DC built by General Electric in November 2001.
