The Abitibi is a Canadian passenger train operated by VIA Rail between Montreal and Senneterre in the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region of Quebec.

The journey from end to end takes approximately 11 1/2 hours. Many small hunting and fishing clubs operate along the route and appear as optional stops on the timetable. It is also possible to make a reservation to detrain at an unmarked spot.

The Abitibi travels three times a week. Between Montreal and Hervey-Jonction, it travels together with The Saguenay, another regional train.
