Charny - Halifax on the Ocean
Following the winding route of the old Intercolonial Railway, the Ocean is a night train which connects Montreal in Quebec to Halifax in Nova Scotia. The first passenger train ran from Halifax to Lévis in 1836 and the train became known as the Ocean in 1904, making it the longest-running service in Canada.
The 836 mile (1,346km) overnight journey takes approximately 20 hours to complete and takes passengers through three provinces and two time zones. As you sleep, the train heads south through a landscape of forests and lakes, across New Brunswick and into Nova Scotia to arrive in Halifax by the afternoon. The dense forests will have given way to sandy beaches and rugged shorelines, assuring us that we have covered much ground during the night.
