| Question: What does this green trackside American railroad sign mean? Posted: 27 Dec 2015 01:00 AM PST Dan H is correct. That sign means the train is now authorized to resume track speed once the entire train has cleared the sign. Before that the train was traveling at a slower speed due to a permanent speed restriction. If it was a green square then it was a temporary speed restriction that may be removed once repairs to the tracks are made. Could be a few miles long and even as short at 10mph for .10 miles which usually means bad track and ties over a road crossing. Again, entire train must clear the green board before we can resume normal speed. |
| Question: Does Via rail actually check ID's? Posted: 24 Dec 2015 05:24 PM PST They can and Do. There is more than One place they can ask for your ID . You really do not want to be put off a train at some other place for non payment of Fare. Curious you need to show Identification to purchase the the Fare. |
| Posted: 24 Dec 2015 05:22 PM PST Seriously. You are a University Student and cannot ADD. How many times would you ride the train an HONEST Guess for the purpose of calculation. What is the Fare for this journey. ADD THEM UP what do you come up with? Is is near $499 much lower or much more? Only YOU know what trains and how often you might ride. Obviously the more you can use it the better the deal. No you cannot stand at the station and rent it out to others for a Free ride. WHO MAY USE THIS PASS? At time of purchase and when using your Unlimited Semester Pass for youth, valid government-issued proof of age identification with photo for those 12 to 25 years old is required and must be presented to VIA personnel upon request. A valid ISIC card will be accepted for those aged 26 years and older. TRANSFERABILITY: Each trip booked using an Unlimited Semester Pass for youth is non-transferable and is only valid for travel by the person in whose name the Unlimited Semester Pass has been issued. Verification is automated and the first and last names of the travelling passenger must match the first and last names given at the time the Unlimited Semester Pass for youth was purchased. The following practices may result in the immediate cancellation of an Unlimited Semester Pass: Use of an Unlimited Semester Pass for youth when government-issued photo identification does not match the name of the passenger on the ticket. |

| Posted: 24 Dec 2015 10:38 AM PST Just like the Plane or Bus sometimes a Train might need to be cancelled for many reasons. It happens less often with the Train because of weather. Sorry in the real world there is no guaranteed will go method of transport you can book for some future date. If you wait until day of travel it may be full and then you also do not get to ride. |
