The highlight of the Canadian is the Park Car at the very end of the train. It includes the most luxurious private rooms (a double bed folds out of the wall), the bullet lounge, a bar (photo via Seat61) and the spectacular glass dome, from where you can look over the train forward. These cars have been in service for exactly 70 years now, but were refurbished multiple times, most recently in 2013. #trainstr

And of course a picture from the outside:

Steampunk vibes. What powers this locomotive? I honestly don't know. Coal? Diesel?

The train has two diesel-electric engines, one to pull it, the other to power it.

Plug in hybrid!

No battery though
