    Just to be clear, Larry, this would be a sulphuric acid train of 36 loads, from Coppercliff Ont. to CIL at Courtright Ont, that normally would go CPR-Chatham-C&O…correct?
    No doubt the CP power left the train at C&O’s Talbot Yard and went back across town with their caboose.
    Power looks to be 4034-RS18 8770-FA1 4019
