Comments on: This is an eastbound CP train running on CN’s mainline west of Edmonton. I had seen CN trains detour CP in Kicking Horse Pass, but they had a CP pilot engine leading. Perhaps the rules had changed in this regard, or maybe the CN route is simply less demanding. Either way, it was a pleasant surprise to see this train. It was a little odd that a lowly empty grain train was detoured, though.
