A short Matane turn (CN 561) led by GP38-2W 4789 is about to cross Rivière Blanche on a cold Friday morning. Lately, it seems like 561 only brings boxcars to the paper mill on fridays, no ferry or lumber cars. The ferry to Baie-Comeau and Sept-Iles used to operate from Monday to Friday, but it seems that traffic reductions aren't only for trains... Maybe they operate on Saturdays or Sundays now to make up for it, who knows... I highly doubt it though.
