Staff were very friendly. However, the train interior was unbelievably filthy. I have traveled many parts of the world and have never seen such filthy seats and floor . I really hope that remodeling can take place soon.

Absolutely great. Except in Seattle the floor announcer lied/didn't know what he was talking about, when he said in the inbound bus was still at the border, we should transfer to the rail. The bus turned up five minutes later.
