[Racki, Senen [Ontario]] True. That's exactly where it was
headed after it was dropped off in Montreal. However, it was only about
$80 for a train ticket from Montreal to Toronto and would've been much
more from Halifax - not to mention the time and hassle. I guess it
would be ok if you're planning a holiday - go a week early, drive around
and see the sites, then drop the car off and go home.
