CN 314 pull through town with the same power hosted by the previous 303, a common arrangtment among Scotford trains. Sometimes he gets units from the CN 852.
Near Mile 141 is South Shalalth and the BC Hydro plant. Once a stop for the Budd Cars, now served by the Budd Lites that run between Lillooet and Seton(and sometimes Darcy).
Shalalth, near mile 142 on the former BC Rail Squamish Sub. Once BC Rail's main line between northern BC and Vancouver, since CN has taken over it has become a weed-choked branch line. Shalalth is a stop for the Budd Lites.
Deep in CN territory, CP GP38AC sits in the former BC Rail yard in North Vancouver. It will be used to pull 2816 and train out to Willingdon Junction so the 2816 can lead heading into downtown Vancouver.
CPR 4-6-4 2816 stops outside the Whistler Mountaineer "station" to change pilots. I got to ride it up to Ambleside where BC 150th anniversary celebrations were being held.
Beltpack GP9RM at the Lynn Creek yard in North Vancouver. It was working a BC Rail yard job and was waiting to pick up some cars that a Lynn Creek yard job was going to drop off.
After yarding our train at Squamish, we parked the power out front of the station for the northbound crew.
We had 3 Dash 8's, the two little blue ones(B39-8's 3907 and 3902), and a big red white and blue one(C40-8M 4617).
