The train from Orangeville in the dome car is almost out. As of this date only one departure is available in late October.


However seating in either scenic or premium coach can still be purchased for some dates :

really blame the newspaper, but for the record, while they may be the

repair). Which also caused the tour operation to be suspended.<br><br>

Came across this link to a new set of ads / posters for this train.


One of them very reminiscent of some CPR visuals done in the 50's for The Canadian.


Credit Valley Explorer------Nework was originally contracted to design the Explorer logo in 2005. Over the years that followed we also created a number of original marketing posters designed to highlight key elements of the tour train experience.
