A Trip on VIA Rail's 'Skeena' (From Jasper to Prince Rupert) - New Footage

The Skeena is VIA Rail’s train that operates on a 2-day journey from Jasper, AB to Prince Rupert, BC
-via Prince George where an overnight stopover is made.

This video is an updated version of my prior video on the Skeena in that it now includes video as well as still images.

Hope you enjoy!

I'm wanting to make several of these trips. I managed to catch the RDCs on Vancouver Island before that route was discontinued. Lesson: Don't wait too long.

I agree, I saw the RDC on Vancouver Island but never got a chance to ride it.

The Skeena is a Federally mandated remote essential service, so never say never but it should be relatively safe from cutbacks.
