I have just booked a trip from Buffalo, NY to Toronto on the Maple Leaf. I purchased Business Class tickets for my wife and I.

Can some tell me what the layout is in the Business Class car? I have found exterior pictures of this car, but I can't seem to find any pictures on the internet of the interior of this car.

Thank you for your help.

Jim

I ride the Maple Leaf a few times a year, but only between Toronto and Niagara Falls, Ont., so have not been able to travel in Business Class. But it can be easily viewed from the take-out counter and, on a few occasions, I have seen that the Business Class section has been a club car with "2+1" seating. Most of the time it is the regular "2+2" seating. On one trip I noticed that the conductor had put mothers and their screaming babies in the Business Class section. One hopes that there were no premium-paying passengers on that run.
