    The junk of 114

    Thats the cool thing about CN 114. It always has the junk in the center of the train. Apparently, the first cut of IMS cars aswell as the junk are cut out at Winnepeg for the Fort Rouge and Symington terminals.

    The End

    The title is rather self explanitory; A CN wood train clears Riverview. The lead units were CN 2587 and 5255. Alas, none of the photos turned out half-decent...

  7. The "Stack Manifest" has an Identity!

    The "Stack Manifest" has an Identity!

    Here, we see CN 115. The train usually has an average of 3 to 4 units. After going passed the park, he will switch off the Watrous sub at Roskin junction, and go to Calgary via the Rosetown subdivision. Towmorrow, all 3 units will return on CN 114, 115's eastbound counterpart. Oh yeah, the two...
