Comments on: The CN test train, which typically runs as CN 1501 solo, was equipped with a 6-axle unit (same as when they were operating in 2024). The train ran east to Kitchener with the 5791 long-hood forward. It did not proceed east from Kitchener. Instead it went back west. The original plan was to put the 5791 on the other end of the RDC at Kitchener yard but the crew couldn’t get a hold of 568, which was working the yard at the time. Instead they went as far east as Sturm and then went back west, utilizing the rarely used siding track at Baden to move the engine so it was nose facing west. Meanwhile, the sun begins to fade from incoming thunderstorms on this warm late April day.
