Canadian Railroads > CN on CP at McCrackenDate: 11/23/15 15:03 CN on CP at McCracken Author: Train611 Hello...
A little of the white stuff around Kamloops today. 1. CN2452 East has the CN Track Inspection train heading towards the junction at Campbell Creek a few miles ahead. Once on the the CN track I believe the train will be working (inspecting) the Okanagan Sub tracks to Vernon area. 2. CN2452 waits at the Stop signal on the north track protecting the crossovers, while a Clear signal indicates another eastbound is approaching. 3. The engineer of CP9700 east gives a respectful wave to the crew member off of CN2452 giving the CP train a "roll-by inspection". Once track is clear and signal given, CN2452 will take the crossover to the south track, and then on to Campbell Creek. Railroading is always interesting! Thanks for looking...have a nice day! 611 Date: 11/23/15 18:42 Re: CN on CP at McCracken Author: upbuddyboy Interesting and very nice...thx
