Bay of Quinte MP Ryan Williams says, “Via Rail Has Failed Commuters in the Bay of Quinte Region.”
Williams has received confirmation from VIA Rail that it has no plans in the near future to reinstate early morning rail service to the Quinte Region. In a statement released on Tuesday, MP Williams says, “For quite a while now we have heard from constituents who are asking us to lobby on their behalf to get VIA Rail to return to the schedule local residents enjoyed pre-Covid, specifically Train 651 that operates from Kingston to Toronto.
MP Williams says “It is absolutely unacceptable that VIA Rail allowed this situation to occur. This lack of service has nothing to do with COVID. VIA Rail is responsible for maintaining its fleet and letting the equipment lapse was a tremendous misstep by the company.”
