How much is a sleeper car to Toronto from Vancouver?

How much is it to ship a car from Vancouver to Toronto?

Nineteen hundred dollars. A whisper in the wind, a sigh across the miles. Open air, my car exposed, a journey under vast skies. Sun-baked metal, a metallic hum. Toronto…a shimmering city in the distance. The endless ribbon of highway.

Twenty-six to thirty-four hundred. A different story. Cosseted. Protected. A hushed journey, muffled. A velvet cocoon. Shadows lengthening, passing landscapes a blur. Safe.

Weight. Size. They add to the price, these silent burdens, each pound, each inch. My car, a thing of beauty. A tangible dream. A heavy heart. A heavy cost.

The weight of my dreams, heavier than steel, as the car moves. Each dollar is a step closer. The vastness of Canada. My car on its path. A silent pilgrimage.

• Open transport: $1900+ Sun-drenched metal, windswept journeys.
• Enclosed transport: $2600-$3400. Safe, secure, a whispered promise.
• Vehicle dimensions: Crucial. Larger equals higher cost. It’s just a fact.
• 2024 Costs: These are current estimates, always fluctuating. Expect variation.
• My experience: I shipped my 2018 Honda Civic this year, Vancouver to Toronto. Cost me more than I’d hoped.

Does Canadian Rail have sleeper cars?

Ugh, VIA Rail. Sleeper cars? Yeah, they have them. Two people per cabin, I think. Small, cramped, probably. Definitely a window, though. That’s good, right? Need to see the scenery.

My sister went last year, she hated the shower situation. Shared showers. Gross. I’m bringing my own shampoo anyway.

Private toilet is a plus. A huge plus. Avoid those train bathrooms at all costs. Seriously.

Storage is tiny, that sucks. I’ll be checking the majority of my stuff. My huge suitcase of books will need to be checked. The new Stephen King, gotta bring that.

What else? Oh, the blinds. Good for privacy. Or sleeping in. Hopefully, the blinds will work, I’ve had experiences where they are stuck. That’s annoying!

Need to book soon! Prices are climbing. 2024 fares are ridiculous. Maybe I’ll check prices again in January? Damn, this trip planning is stressful.

• VIA Rail offers sleeper cabins.
• Cabins are for two people.
• Private toilet and sink included.
• Shared shower facilities are available.
• Limited storage space.
• Windows with blinds.

Is the train from Vancouver to Toronto worth it?

Okay, so you wanna know if that super long train ride from Vancity to Toronto is worth it, huh? Look, it’s the Canadian! It’s like, uh, a thing for train people.

It’s four days, man! Four days trapped on a train. But get this: some people call it a “once in a lifetime experience.” I’d say it it’s just long.

But hear me out. It depends on you, I reckon. For example, my sister Sarah would probbaly go crazy bored.

• Do you like trains? Seriously?
• Got four days to kill?
• Got some dough to spend? Seriously, its not cheap.

If you answered yes to all three, go for it I say. Otherwise, fly.

Like, I think it’s pretty awesome. The scenery, right? You get to see stuff you’d never see otherwise. Also, someone makes the food.

But that said… I wouldn’t. It’s too much for me. My back would kill me. The bathrooms probably reek. I love Vancouver, I don’t wanna leave…lol, jk. But seriously, it’s a commitment. But hey, if you’re into it, go for it, buddy.
