Train 510 was about as regular as it gets, leaving for Beamer (a chemical plant hotspot near Fort Saskatchewan) every morning at about 0800hrs. Its task was to switch out the chemical plants in that area and return in the late afternoon. This train originated in Calder/Walker Yard. It always had big power. There are no excessive grades, and the trains were not monsters, with regard to length. Perhaps it would become another train (219?) once it returned to Edmonton?
