The train was due to leave Sunday (27/04) at 7.30 am. All was going well until the Taxi driver deposited us at the wrong railway station. However, the Rocky Mountaineer people anticipated that possibility and had a guy waiting with a vehicle to transport us to the correct station.
That experience was a window on Rocky M people’s service. We had a wonderful 2 days meandering our way to Banff with an overnight stop at Kamloops.
The train had a mixture of Australians, Scots, English, Canadians, Americans and one Kiwi, and a wonderful woman called Lyn serviced our carriage. The journey was just marvellous. There are so many difference experiences along the way it is hard to describe them all. Massive canyons, waterfalls, rivers, mountains, cute villages and one bear standing beside the train line. The family from Canberra were ecstatic to see the bear. I managed to shoot him – well part of him with my camera. So far it is the only bear we have seen.
