Saturday On The Sussex Sub

I heard it through the grapevine that ex-UP unit, newly CN unit 2112 was originally scheduled to be on CN 406 yesterday. I decided to venture out to get a shot. As the day went on, I found out that apparently there were other plans for that unit (as far as I know), so it never made it on the train. The power was still CN 2322 & CN 8926, both newer units. I figured that in itself was a good reason to go out and get a shot.

At around 16:30 AST, CN 406 heads west through mile 61 of the CN Sussex Subdivision, with 86 cars in tow.



Not a bad catch!

Nice video! The HD sure makes it nice to watch. At the 1:03 mark I was happy to see one of those 20' tank containers. I personaly have not seen one yet. I had bought two HO kits of them at the Edmonton train show last year and was wondering if they were still in use.

Cheers,

Thanks for the comments. I should check back at some past footage, because I'm pretty sure I've seen those tank containers on this train a few other times as well.
