Railpictures.ca - Paul O'Shell Photo: Attention passengers. There will be a slight delay VIA #5 The Skeena is all set to pull up to the station and begin boarding passengers at Jasper, AB Mile 235.7 on CN’s Edson Sub. on this overcast, windy, and lightly snowing morning, however, a bad wheel on baggage car VIA 8613 has necessitated a switching move to set the car out causing a delay in the 12:45 scheduled departure. Once the baggage car was removed, the new consist for VIA #5 became VIA 6455, VIA 8102 coach, and VIA 8707 Kokanee Park. Unknown at the time, the 4-day trip from Jasper, AB to Prince Rupert, BC and return would hold even more surprises for yours truly. :-) | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography
