Description
Trans-Canada Train Trip 2018:
We are looking toward the engine on a curve in the tracks emerging from the canyon along the route from Jasper British Columbia to Edmonton, Alberta Canada.
We (my wife Pat, youngest son Scott, and I) took a trans-Canada train trip in September 2018 and took these beautiful pictures. We had many more, but these are some of the best color, black and white, and selective color photos. We started in Vancouver, BC, spending the day there taking in the park, downtown sites and restaurants, and the tram up Grouse mountain. The next day we left on VIA Rail, went through the rocky mountains, the plateau, and plains to end our trip in Toronto four days later.
Some of our best color and black and white pictures are available here. They were taken with a Nikon N3400 camera, 300 dpi, at various exposure and frame settings. I post-processed some of them to compensate for the tinted glass of the train observation car windows and and some other enhancements. The watermark will not appear on the final prints.

Thank you so much, Gary. This train trip of yours looks like a lot of fun. Beautiful landscapes to check out and occasionally, you can even get up and walk around to stretch your legs. Better than flying!

I did this trip a couple of trips many years ago - I would love to do it again as they didn't have digital cameras in those days! FL
