Comments on: Work train at the ready GREX 2400 is the power and unloading conveyor car for the loaded ballast train ready to head out and dump more stone for the continuing rehabilitation of HBR’s tracks to the port in Churchill, MB. Having taken the VIA 693/692 round-trip from Winnipeg to Churchill twice a year for the past four years I have witnessed the incredible improvements in the roadbed and other infrastructure all along the line. My next trip is coming up on October 19-25, 2026 and I will be looking to snap some more interesting sights along the remote route for posting to RP. At the right of the frame, sleeping car VIA 8202 Chateau Bienville brings up the tail-end ‘paddle’ and rear-facing white light on VIA 693 The Hudson Bay during its scheduled multi-hour station stop in Thompson.
