Ottawa, Sept 26 (NITN): Canada is a treasure trove waiting to be explored. What better way than to explore this magnificent country than by rail. It is an experience almost as iconic as the landscape itself. Get on the train and, instantly be transported to a different world instantly, a realm where you can admire the timeless Canadian landscape unfolding outside the window.
To experience the 'real' Canada, the vast distances, the picturesque landscapes, the topography changes from one part of this immense country to the next; nothing beats traveling by train and what better way to Go Green-while you traverse the great Canadian landscape.
