Well this is creepy, according to this article there was some sort of flu outbreak on the eastbound Canadian, nine are sick and one has died, they have stopped the train and are only letting emergency personnel on or off:

Scary stuff. Hope they let those people out soon, what a nightmare to be trapped on the train and held there when you know there's some potentially deadly disease floating around.
 
sorry didn't see that this topic was already up.

Actually you had a different version of the original story, so it's not really a duplication, I just didn't want two different topics. Therefore I'm going to restore the link to the story that you found.

The death of a woman on a Via Rail train Friday and the flu-like symptoms experienced by a group of passengers were not caused by an infectious disease and likely weren't connected, Ontario's acting chief medical officer said.
