Never had the chance to see the musical during its original run/tours. I've been searching around for a few weeks but haven't been able to find anything. There's full recordings on YouTube of the Broadway and LA productions, but they're not great video and audio quality; looks like they're just someone in the crowd recording on their phone. Pretty crap audio anyways.

Wondering if anyone knows of anything better that's out there? I'm willing to pay (a small amount) to watch a high quality recording, if it exists!

As announced today, B.C. will be moving to permanent daylight saving time with the "spring ahead" next weekend. This means that come November 2026, when Washington, Oregon, and California "fall back" an hour, B.C. will stay an hour ahead. This will have an impact on cross-border transportation services, including Amtrak Cascades. Unless/until the U.S. west coast follows suit, from November to March each year, B.C. will be one hour ahead of the rest of the coast.

Assuming no changes are made to the current schedule, local departure/arrival times at VAC during these months will be:

• #517 departure - 8:15am (SEA arrival 11:40am)
• #516

Train #1 departing Toronto on December 31, 2025, has a high probability of a delayed departure.

The inbound trainset on train #2 (departed Vancouver on December 26, 2025) is currently 14 hours behind schedule at Foleyet. A freight derailment near Winnipeg apparently contributed to most of the delay.

Train #2 likely won't arrive in Toronto until the middle of the night tonight. This makes it very unlikely the train will make the scheduled departure tomorrow morning. Previous history suggests an afternoon or evening departure from Toronto for #1 on Dec 31.

The trainset in question should get back on normal schedule upon arrival in Vancouver where it has a ~36 hour turnover period.

Expect cancellations/alternate service/bustitutions on 516/517/518/519 for the next day or two per BNSF policy.
