CP 454

CP 454 (E/B manifest+IMS, Sutherland-Winnipeg) is by far my favorite train on the CP PNL. Why? It fits my objective criterea:
1. Good timing, daily and always around noon
2. Good consist, lots of cars, a real good junk train - hoppers, gondolas, cente-beams, tankers, boxcars, platforms, autoracks...
3. Good power. Ussually 3SD40-2's or better, a SD40-2F is in the middle in this case.

CP 457 and 103 can share 2nd place, but it will always be my #1 priority to catch this guy, hopefully this photo makes it clear why.

I know that, but if I turn it more its crooked the other way. The crookedness is a bit prototypical in my opinion, as I'm shooting from a hill and the train is going downwards, as there's a small hump yard on the other side of the bridge. tHank you for your comments, always helpfull and get me thinking, as I'm going to try to catch the same train from the same spot in about an hour.
