Canadian Railroads > Reroute BNSF Shuswap Sub

Due to delays from  avalanches in the Pacific Northwest Washington, I got to see one of the detours come through this area , I wish they could use the BNSF power to lead just for a color change from the common red . Thanks for looking Greg

Nice work as always.

Fun to see some colour change on the local tracks.

Good stuff Greg, I just caught it at Salmon Arm but no pics. Thanks for sharing and thanks A.J. for the heads up.

That sure is a long way out of the way detour.

That 9775 is one of the MACe rebuilds. Don't know why you couldn't use BNSF as leader.
