Wow ! Michael, action galore ! Well done, Imagine GE’s built 28 years apart , and very nice the way all the track signals are included. Does the new crew boarding CN 874 go all the way to Quebec City, and does 874 travel via St Hyacinth and use the Quebec Bridge to cross the St. Lawrence River ? And where are the grain cars on the left going ? hanks for sharing.

Thanks. Yes the crew will go to Quebec City via the South Shore. The grain cars at left are parked there for the moment, not sure of the destination.
