Hi Stephen,
I’m taking VIA 006 The Skeena from Prince Rupert to Prince George, to Jasper this coming Sunday, spending a few days in Jasper, then making the return trip on VIA 005 The Skeena September 17th.
Hoping to catch a glimpse of one or both of the new firefighting consists.

I thought the third photo was this photo again. I guess it was different?

The third photo didn’t make the cut, so I have sent the link to CN’s info separately.

CN seems to be acquiring quite the fleet of fire suppression equipment. A good supply of water would be essential.
