Train in Calgary Vs Train in Venezuela


I have some recommendation for you about public transport when you want to come to Calgary. The most common way to transportation is by train and bus. I recommend you that you find the schedule and the map of your bus and remember that the schedule of weekend it´s different to the week days. On the bus and train you need to know about some basic rules of etiquette, for example: don´t make eye contact with the people, don´t speak with strangers, don´t listen loud music and don´t smoke. Another important thing is about the use of phones, don´t use your phone to least it is a emergency or a really an important thing, and try to speak low and fast. Of course, some rules are the same that our country Venezuela as: give your seat to elderly person, don´t put your feet on the seat, don't dirty, etc. However, the good new is that you can bring pets and bicycles on the bus and train, you can eat some kind of foods (without strong odors) and drink some beverages. All these are new for us because on the train in Venezuela these are not allowed. Now you know, if you remember these rules, you will not have any problem when you come to Calgary and you use the public transport.

  1. I think most people are polite on the C-train, but sometimes there are people who break the rules. I guess that can happen anywhere!
