CN Maximum Speed for Train 301??
Author: ENRail

Curious if anyone knows what the maximum speed is on CN 301 from Winnipeg to Vancouver.

I know much of the track in the prairies is 60 MPH for CN, but is 301 restricted to 50 MPH throughout this territory?

Any restrictions from track speed would be based on cars in the consist, which varies from day to day. Some bulkhead flats are restricted, and the new government order of 25 mph max would apply if there's more than 20 hazmat cars in the consist.
