Canadian Railroads > A late Z120 at Springhill Junction NSDate: 11/19/22 09:47 A late Z120 at Springhill Junction NS Author: newtonville150 CN 120 Springhill Jct NS @ 11:53 November 19th, CN 2832, CN 2962, CN 4788
dp CN 2912 with 566 axles. Now that 122/123 have been cancelled as daily trains, 120 seems to be bigger, just in time for winter and now rates distributed power again. It was a lot later than usual too. Probably because of the weather conditions in Ontario. CN 4788 looks recently re-painted, and I think it's also set up for belt-pack operation and equipped with an electronic bell. ...John Reay Springhill NS Edited 1 time(s).

Back to one huge train (and often late) in each direction - what was old is new again! Someone in upper CN management probably got a big bonus with the cost savings of operating only one train instead of two (even though there's nothing new about that)...

It's not just paint, it looks like a repair is spliced in on the widenose's angle.
