I haven't used a train either, but unlike Godzilla, I dont think the paper work is the hardest part about bringing a car across. As long as you read as many threads on importing as you can, make sure understand all RIV's rule ( don't hesitate to call them).
I don't think using a rail company is a big deal though, from what I understand, i think all you need to do is arange pick up and drop off with a rail company, drop off with the previous owner, and then find out where the train would be crossing and use them as the broker/transporter on the export form that the border crossing needs you to fill out and fax in prior to crossing. |

| easiest way to do it..like mentioned, is pay a brokerage firm to deal with it...they will arrange shipping (to your request, ie enclosed, open,etc..), arrange for shipping insurance, they will get all documents to the border pre-arrival of vehicle, and will then get it to your door, or arrange for a meeting time to pick it up, and they arent too expensive either..maybe a few hundred, not including border expenses (ie duty, gst etc) :thumbup: |
