VIA Rail Ottawa London recent customer reviews

The train was significantly late. I went by train because it was considered more reliable. I was late for the meeting and this is unacceptable.

The staff at Via Rail were very helpful, kind and courteous. They were all very friendly and made the experience enjoyable

Unfortunately I was not able to get internet with any consistency. It kept dropping off required a re-boot of my computer. I lost a day's work. This is the reason for taking the train, so that I could still get work done. I will likely look for an alternate form of transportation with reliable internet in the future. No washroom available in car # 5 from Ottawa to Toronto. One was locked out and the second one would not flush ( flashing green light). Staff was great but these issues were not their fault.
