Comments on: CN 100 unit CN 3887 & CN 2253 lead a short CN 321 towards Turcot Ouest. With only 55 cars, they will be lifting cars at Coteau and Brockville. In just a a mile or two they will be stopped by a PTC penalty, an odd thing to happen in Canada, where PTC is not used. http://www.railpictures.ca The BEST Canadian photos on the Internet, eh?

I'm not sure how long it took them to resolve the problem. Ah ok, they came to a stop and call the diesel doc. I’m not sure how long it took them to resolve the problem.

Software glitches and other problems occasionally trigger a penalty brake application, and then you get to troubleshoot it, reboot it, and eventually cut it out if the problem can't be fixed.
