However, train 61 does not come back as 68 but rather continues on to Niagara Falls as 95 while 68 originates from the TMC often using the same train set as that morning's 86. I'm guessing the video was really of VIA #66 and not #68 although it's possible equipment trouble caused 66 to use a different consist that day.
The second youtube video you have here shows train #68 with Renaissance cars.
I thought that only train #52 which becomes train #67 and train #53 which becomes train #66 had Renaissance cars?
Was train #68 just a fluke that it had Renaissance cars or is this a regular consist?
If so,from what i can figure out in the schedule would train #61 have Renaissance cars and come back as train #68?
