Discover the journey
Canadian Crossing
Departs from New York, NY (NYP) and arrives in Montreal, PQ (MTR)
Enjoy approximately 12 hours onboard
Leave Manhattan in the morning light and arrive in Montréal as the city lights come on. Your private railcar follows the Hudson River for more than a hundred miles, close enough to the water that the river seems to run beside your table. It passes the granite ramparts of the Highlands and the blue ridgelines of the Catskills. It then turns north through the horse country of Saratoga and along the western shore of Lake Champlain, where the Green Mountains rise across the water. Somewhere past the lake, the train crosses into Canada without ceremony, and the first sight of Montréal arrives with dinner.
It 's one day and two countries, and the whole car is yours.
