On Amtrak....Business Class is an Upgraded Coach with drink and snack but take a ride on VIA and Business Class is a product closer to what's offered in Acela First Class.
Last weekend I travelled from Toronto to Ottawa using a VIA Preference (their frequent flyer program) discount coupon offering a Business Class up-grade at a very reasonable cost.
Business Class is offered on just about every train in the Quebec City to Windsor Corridor and is quite popular with some trains even running with two cars. Seating in the refurbished cars is 2 + 1 so for the best selection of seats.....single or double and aisle or window......I've found the best time to travel is on a Saturday afternoon or Sunday morning when fewer are travelling. We were about 1/3 full on Saturday afternoon.
Arriving at Toronto Union Station early.....I had time to wait and enjoy the Business Lounge.
