Timezone: UTC-6.

Stop at Sioux Lookout and Winnipeg.

More interesting conversations, with: a very kind and modest retired maritime traffic controller; a Ukrainian Canadian who actually uses the train chiefly to get from place A to B, rather than for leisure; a Trump supporter whose wife is not; and quite a few more.
