Here is the new train that VIA Rail - the crown agency that operates national passenger transit in Canada - will be operating soon.
They're Siemens SC-42's and are pretty nice trains. They can travel 201 kilometers an hour although due to our aging infrastructure, they will be capped at 160 kilometers an hour which is not the greatest, but still decent for North America. They will be operating on the Windsor to Québec City corridor which is the main rail corridor running through Ontario, the most densely populated part of Canada (which is also the corridor that hopefully will one day get high speed rail...just probably not in my lifetime).
