Extra Squamish Sub. Train: Slide Related?
Author: loleta

An extra 571 is getting ready to depart North Van soon: CN 8889 North. Might this be slide-related?

I suppose it could be. Perhaps detouring empty grain, empty sulphur or other type of train. Good thing CN left the "back door" open via BC Rail. Doug

Indeed, this was slide-related, according to radio conversations. Unfortunately I was housebound by a napping one-year-old and could not go photograph it, but it appeared from a distance to include lots of empty grain hoppers. Two CN units.

I observed this train from by bus as we crossed Lions Gate at around 9:30.

Interesting to hear how the crew situation works out.
