Amtrak Cascades

Pros: the speed in US and the view all the way. Cons: unacceptable delays once the train crossed the canadian border. very slow on white rock, and delays due to other trains crossing Patullo bridge, as well as other places in Burnaby. Long wait after we got to Central station. Tips: Next time I will do the same trip only on US teritory, getting off before the border and get a ride back home from there.
