  1. Morning IMS

    Morning IMS

    CN 104, with a pretty crappy consist, is leaving the city, with competition (CP 104 naturally) only a couples miles back. Note the web patch under the CN NA logo, first time I've seen CN squeze one under there! Oct 31 '07 9:11am CN 104?, 147 cars CN 2517-5722 (CN NA + web - web) 61...
  2. CN 313 Riverview

    CN 313 Riverview

    Until recently 313 was a regular manifest with a bit of everything. Now that the Prince Rupert terminal is open - there are boxes up front! The train proceeded to work Saskatoon yard for at least two hours. Great way to serve those Intermodal customers! Oct 31 '07 11:00am CN 313, 110 cars...

    Midnight Lightning

    A massive bolt of lightning hits the new Tacoma Narrows Bridge for the first time as a late manifest local from Centralia snakes its way under it. I bet the crew got an excellent view.
  6. Two of a kind

    Two of a kind

    BC Rail & CN purchased all but three Dash 8-40CM's. Who could have guessed back then that CN would take over BC Rail and put the D8's together on many of their trains. You can see the CN/BCOL differences pretty well in this photo, for instance one less engine opening on the BCOL unit's...
  7. CN 2450 Dash 8-40CM

    CN 2450 Dash 8-40CM

    Although barely a teenager at 15 years old, this unit is showing quite a bit of wear and tear - just look at those amazing safety stripes on the frame. 3 varieties there - shiny, dirty and the original white. The primer panel under the cab doesn't look pretty either.
  8. CN 2201 Dash 9-44CW (DPU)

    CN 2201 Dash 9-44CW (DPU)

    In 2004 CN decided to get into DPU aka Locotrol, well behind most RR's, especially CP who has been running distributed power for decades! DPU equipped CN 2200-2205, were numbered separately from the rest of CN's Dash 9-44CW series (2500-2700). They were also restricted to Eastern Canada where...
  9. CN 835

    CN 835

    Although a W/B by nature, he was running light E/B to assemble his train @ Clavet. Note 5520's action orange panel under the cab and some peeling on the Dash 9-44CW.
