Last Day Bonus. Sat. 15th June 2019

Just what I wanted, at least two hours late running towards Jasper. Nevertheless, I wasn’t to know that when I crawled out of bed shortly after 5.30, with officially just an hour to disembark the train. But being greeted by some of the loveliest countryside I have ever seen, and then some of the most dramatic, with the morning sun further enhancing these vistas, two extra hours is a most welcome bonus. And, it seems we are delayed still further at a danger signal, surrounded by 360 degree magnificence.Hinton.We are due to pull into Jasper at 08.40hrs seven hours behind GMT. My cabin has been prepared for the next passenger who will have been waiting since before 6.30 this morning. Surely, it cannot “get any better than this.” It seems we are now pulling into the station, and I don’t think that I have forgotten anything.

More later, no doubt!

David. 08.38hrs 15/6/19. still on board The Canadian.
