Description:  As this train consisting of two autoracks shoved by two ES44DCs pulls out from behind the bushes, you can see that the brakerman is hanging on to tell the engineer what’s ahead.

CN 2269
Title:  CN 2269
Description:  I was quite surprised when I saw this pair of autoracks being shoved down the CN York Subdivision by a team of two ES44DCs going in reverse. This was definitely the smallest consist I ever saw on the CN York sub and definitely one of the weirdest (Normally, you don’t see trains going in reverse on one of the busiest mainlines in the country).
