Canadian Railroads > Chairman's Train on the CNDate: 12/19/12 17:16 Chairman's Train on the CN Author: loleta In truly awful weather -- dark and windy, with freezing rain -- CN 8935 led a two-car chairman's special to Squamish today, rolling through West Vancouver at about 3:00pm.

This time of year, these specials are usually taking bigwigs to a weekend at Whistler. But sure enough, the train was back in North Vancouver this evening.
