Pros: The 37 train was. Cons: The train was a bit older and needs to be upgraded. I have come from England and do not have any phone facilities. I was hoping for WiFi connection at St Lambert to order an Uber. Disappointing.

VIA Rail

Pros: Really comfortable and friendly. Cons: At the Via train station in St. Lambert, there is no signage to indicate/confirm that my connecting Amtrak train to NYPenn Station would arrive at the station. All signage and schedules refer only to Via. No staffing- a nice Via info line and a conductor from a later train confirmed that Amtrak did stop at the station- time or other details unknown. Tips: Be assured that a connecting Amtrak train will stop at the station, even though the many Via passengers waiting for trains have never seen an Amtrak train. However, they will be very helpful to track down the info you need.

Take a stroll around the quarter, and you might find yourself transported to Europe. If you wish to take a break from the hustles and bustles of a big city for a while, drive 9 miles northeast of the Old Town and you will reach Montmorency Falls Park, with its iconic 272-foot fall. The park’s idyllic beauty and its amazing landmarks will certainly strike a chord with nature lovers. For those who just can’t have enough with the town’s interesting history, head over to Place-Royale, which was the original birthplace of the French Colony and the French-American community.
