Train 390 blasts out of the Sarnia tunnel with two SD40-2's, one a former GEC Alstom GCFX (re-letterd WC with white CN Logo) and an IC. The WC was supposed to lead this train but they swapped it before entering Canada. Rats. Reference from FPON Groups.io here. According to the late and great Ken Lanovich: "I was wondering how far IC 6017 would lead. The only IC units equipped with safety devices (alerter-RSC) are the GE`s."

    I didn’t shoot all that many trains coming out of tunnel. Maybe 20. Variety is good but this was a treat to find. I do it only a couple times a year ..
