While my dad and I were out for a drive I heard on the scanner a BNSF was leading a train and it had clearance to Tilbury to meet another train (we were in Belle River at the time). While driving to Tilbury we saw the Westbound 608 was suppose to meet. When we got to Tilbury we saw the last tank car going over the crossing and around the curve. So we pulled a quick U-turn (in a drive-way) and jumped on the 401 and raced it to Kent Bridge and we made it with about 5 minutes to spare.

    The railway is BNSF Mike.

    No it’s not – it’s a Canadian Pacific train. It’s up to the user to decide what they want to put in that field – either way, it’s searchable by both railway (Canadian Pacific) and Reporting Marks (BNSF). Most will use the railway that is in the cab of the locomotive, and I assure you no BNSF employees are in that cab.

    No it’s Canadian Pacific Mitch. It’s not BNSF 608, it’s CP 608.
