Crew Districts Comparison
Author: Zephyr

Hello fellow railroaders in Canada!

I'm doing a little study comparing crew districts between the UP, BNSF, CN and CP operating between the West Coast and Chicago.  I have BNSF and UP crew districts, but I don't have any information on CN from Prince Rupert to Chicago and CP/CN from Vancouver to Chicago.  Does anyone know these crew districts, and, if so could you share with me? 

Thanks much in advance!

Some crew districts are dependent on train type. On CP the crew change points from Chicago to Vancouver are: Chicago (Bensenville), Portage, St Paul, Enderlin, Portal, Moose Jaw, sometimes Swift Current, Medicine Hat, Calgary (Alyth), Field, Revelstoke, Kamloops, North Bend / Boston Bar, Vancouver (Coquitlam / Roberts Bank)

Does a typical eastbound Prince Rupert to Chicago intermodal train change crews at all these points, or are there some "long" pools that avoid some of these crew change points?

Thanks.
