Reservia currently shows this Wednesday's 14 and next Sunday's 14 as Budd (HEP1) in the system. Oddly, #15 this Friday has not yet been updated to HEP1 (still shows as Ren), nor has next Wednesday's 15. But given that the Budd set will have to return to Montreal once it gets to Halifax, those return components will both have to be run with that set - so just a matter of time before they update.
I'm booked on 15 this Friday and am kind of surprised that I still haven't heard from VIA re: the equipment change, given that my travel is now only 4 days away. Especially since the system has been updated for the subsequent 14 already. My return the following Friday is anticipated to end up as the Budd set as well, so I've wondered if I'll end up getting notified about both parts of my trip at once or if I'll get notified about the return leg later.
*EDIT: Spoke too soon on the first part - as of this afternoon, the system has now been updated to show this Friday's and next Wednesday's 15s as HEP1, so that's good. Now the interesting thing, as a passenger booked on that train, will be to see how long it takes to get notified about it....stay tuned...
