The Second Train to Vancouver is Coming August 19th

Celebrate the Primary Election by taking the second train from Seattle to Vancouver, B.C. This is a overdue and exciting breakthrough for intercity rail travel on the Cascade Corridor. It is crazy that the Canadian Immigrations stalled this process at all. Regardless I am glad to see the deal finally came through! Passengers will now be able to ride from Portland to B.C. on one continuous train.

A full release is here on the WDSOT Site:

  1. It's been bumped to the 20th (or at least only shows the 20th in the reservation system)

  2. Andrew, you know it's temporary? Only until after the Olympics and Paralympics?
