Comments on: While visiting Burlington for Real Rails 2025, I caught VIA’s “Lumi” train set on Toronto-Windsor train No. 73. According to a Trains Newswire article covering this Venture train’s introduction into service, it ““acts as a reminder of the beginning of a new era for passenger rail,” and is meant to be reminscient of the all-yellow TurboTrains that operated between Montreal and Toronto until 1982″. Hmmm–I seem to recall car weekend Rapido trains between Toronto and Montreal (and also in southwestern Ontario) behind 3 or 4 units (FP9s/FPA4s/RS18s/GP9s)–a Siemens Venture is not quite the same to me… http://www.railpictures.ca The BEST Canadian photos on the Internet, eh?
