Comments on: After a crew change in Boston Bar, CN 2287 and 2310 pull down the main with a short, 5001′ Q101. The new crew will take the train all the way to its destination of Robert’s Bank.

Boston Bar to Robert’s Bank is only about 140 miles. There aren’t any extended runs west of Jasper anymore, at least on the mainline. On the BC Northline, Prince George/Smithers crews double sub btwn the two cities, as do Smithers/Prince Rupert crews.

So they’re quad subing now? How do they manage the duty time?
