Valentine's Day Rail Sale

Via Rail Canada (www.viarail.ca) has announced a 50 per cent off sale from the regular adult fare provided you book by Valentine's Day, February 14. The offer is good system-wide and in all fare classes, for travel up to June 14, 2013.
So if you have ever yearned to take the train across Canada, one of the world's great rail journeys, this could be a good time to book it. You can even travel first class with big savings. I have never taken the train all the way across the country at one time, but I did make the trip from Montreal to Edmonton in a roomette when I was going west to teach at the University of Alberta. It was a very pleasant experience and gave me a real feel for the breadth of this country. The first night after leaving Montreal we were in Ontario, and the second night we were still in Ontario.
 Or if you just want to take a short trip within Canada, say Montreal to Toronto or Ottawa, by booking it now you can save big.
