How long would it take to get to Winnipeg from Halifax VIA Rail?
I’d be happy to help you with that! For starters, Winnipeg to Halifax will involve two transfers. You will have to take the Canadian from Winnipeg to Toronto, the Corridor from Toronto to Montreal, and the Ocean from Montreal to Halifax. The total time for the trip is approximately 65 hours, including both layovers, and taking into account the time zone changes. *All times given in local timezones. Train #2, The Canadian, departs Winnipeg at 11:30pm Central Time and arrives Toronto at 9:30am Eastern Time, two days later. Train #60 departs Toronto at 11:35am, and arrives Montreal at 5:09pm. Train #14, the Ocean, departs Montreal at 6:30pm, and arrives Halifax at 4:23pm Atlantic Time the next day. Keep in mind that train #2 passes only on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays. Train #14 passes every day except Tuesday. I suggest that you book AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE, because especially during the summer months, trains book up very fast and early.
