Western Railroad Discussion > Canadians on the Joint Line . .

. . thanks to a timely tip from fellow TO'er Grande-Fan, thanks Nathan, I was able to catch this unusual trio of Canadian National units on a southbound manifest train sitting at Greenland, CO behind one south waiting for three north to get over the top of the Palmer Divide on the joint UP-BNSF Denver to Pueblo Joint Line the third of which is passing through Palmer Lake right now led by two more CN units along with a BNSF H-1. A CN kind of day for sure. A fine ending to another beautiful day in the neighborhood, eh!

I knew I should have traveled down the Joint Line today looking for that trio, DANG IT! Oh Well, good catch JB:}

Nice shot JB. SP8595 and I looked for and waited on a CN Rail Train that never showed on Thursday.
I'm glad you got this train.

Nope. Called-on-duty BNSF crews were never have known such amenities existed on those visitor motors.
