302 is Symington Yard/Winnipeg, Manitoba to Mac Yard/Toronto. It’s counterpart is 301.
They work somewhere in WI on the way.

Started rerouting during trackwork season last summer and they have found it easier to get some freight to one of the yards in WI this way than switching in Kirk.

Train was spotted in WI yesterday. These trains usually do not have foreign power on them so this one is interesting for sure.
