All Canadians want you to make it to Halifax, while the US could care
less, it seems. Transportation is better than it once was. During the
war there was a supposedly express train from St John to Toronto. It
was supposed to take 24 hours and always took more than 48. They
derisively called it the ' Bullet '.We don't do airline: we plan to
take a train and a boxboat to Amsterdam when the ice goes out. It
leaves Lake Michigan every two weeks. I wonder what the food is like,
the ship is Polish..

The Bullet?
Would that be the Newfie Bullet that ran from St. John's to Port aux
Basques, Newfoundland...................
or was there a Bullet that ran from Saint John, New Brunswick to Toronto?
