For a wider choice of Canadian departures, passengers can connect through Montreal Central Station, the main intercity rail hub across the river.

Should I reserve seats on trains from Saint-Lambert?

Seat reservations are standard on most VIA Rail Canada intercity services from Saint-Lambert, and your ticket is normally tied to a specific train. Amtrak Adirondack tickets are also for a specific departure and require passenger details for cross-border travel. Book earlier for Fridays, Sundays, summer dates, Christmas and New Year, when the smaller Saint-Lambert stop can have limited remaining seat inventory.
