Your images say it all, both positive and negative. For your morning flight, one would think this would be a great time to use UPX to avoid any risk of traffic, and yet you appear to be the only passenger on the train. On the positive side, the train looks beautiful and it sounds like a very smooth experience.
If they would just experiment with the price point a bit, maybe they could fill the trains up!
Seriously, it's not the price point. It really isn't. The cost is $19 versus $50+ for a cab for vastly superior service from Union. Anyone who stays at the Royal York or Delta and doesn't use it should have their head examined. If you're at the Sheraton? Maybe a cab if you're lazy or obese. Maybe.
What they need is word of mouth. A cold snap where somebody is whingeing about slush getting out of a cab, and somebody else at the meeting says, "I took the train in, and I haven't even been outside. I could have left my winter coat in Montreal/New York/Calgary!"
Great service.
