ALL ABOARD Skyline car attendant Sean stands by the step box at the vestibule door of economy coach VIA 8130 at the Churchill station waiting for the last of the economy class passengers to board VIA 692 The Hudson Bay. The baggage truck can be seen driving down the platform after loading all the luggage and supplies for the southbound journey. I enjoyed a full day in the town of Churchill, and the rain was kind enough to hold off until a half hour before boarding. The consist for this evenings train is: VIA 6419 locomotive VIA 6433 locomotive VIA 8602 baggage car VIA 8118 economy coach VIA 8130 economy coach VIA 8511 Skyline dome VIA 8224 Chateau Roberval sleeping car
