Tourism season is coming up and one of the biggest attractions for the Kamloops area is the Rocky Mountaineer. The luxury train is up and running with lots of improvements this year to their already high end fleet.
Dwayne Dergousoff Senior Director, Rail Operations talks about some of the additions.
“We partnered with Stadler Rail several years ago and they built us some rail cars and brought them over from Germany and they’re starting to roll on the property,” he said
“We’re going to have seven in service this year, they’re already out and about. They’re fantastic cars and they compliment our gold leaf fleet, which we will wind up having twenty six of those cars.”
Along with the new rail cars – Dergousoff says they’re offering more packages with more things to do.
They’re partnered with Canadian Mountain Holidays so customers can do more trekking around the Rockies.
