251 went past MP 22.5 at 12:10 pm. It seemed that only the third unit was working, giving the crew a very quiet ride in the lead locomotive. Short train.

CN 3314 is the engine. They are currently rearming the EOT and then will hook onto the head end and proceed to BC.

My have the mighty fallen. Up to recently the crack 100 series trains always had two locomotives partially for this reason. But I am guessing it is all empty racks anyway, like usual lately, so no hurry. Wait, isn't this then a 280 type train?
