Comments on: FPON Far from home rails, CN M394 with KCS 4592 and TFM 1611 pass the west end of the GO Storage yard, formerly the connection of the CN Beeton Subdivision. The derail in this photo signifies the pending CN Union arbitration which resulted in the end (for the meantime) of Foreign power leading into Canada on CN and CP.

I see it happen quite often on CP(KC) steadily throughout the years compared to much less on CN. I’ve never heard of this Union arbitration until your post. Maybe ive been living under a rock!

Well, it worked, because instead of every other train on average having foreign power (some days almost all trains had a foreign leader) it pretty much dried up within a year or two. A few snuck through but now you rarely ever see it.
