With RailCanada across the Rockies to Vancouver

Late at night, in the deserted railway station we were welcomed  ( the  crew really seemed happy to see us) with  drinks and apples.  We boarded the train and  went to our cabins.The bed was already made (it  took the whole cabin) and we were rocked to sleep.  We woke up  ready for breakfast and eager to get to know our space.  The carriages though narrow offered every comfort;  a spacious dining  room,  'panorama' cars, showers, etc... So we settled for  3 days of  enjoying leisurely travelling,  good food,  good company and splendid nature viewing.  We had a pleasant surprise- at Winnipeg we are offered a conducted tour of the  city.
