You will learn them in time…even just recognizing the train by the cars in the consist. For example the train pictured is CN 393. You can tell it is 393 by all of the auto racks up front. 331 works Paris every day. 331 typically has lots of tank cars and steel cars.

Thanks. I never know the train symbols unless I can hear them on the scanner.

That would be CN 331 with CN 5650 and IC 2457

Do you know what is the train symbol of the westbound that was switching in Paris two hours later?
