Viewing Album:  Afternoon CN Power Plus - 4/12/12
 
By:Gary Everhart
Dates:4/12/2012 - 4/12/2012
Album Info:Five unit lash up usually means a long wait for motorists when the Canadian National runs throueh town. This was an exception to that rule. Relatively small number of cars makes mf think that some of those engines were deadheading east. They sure do put on quite a show when they pass by. The ground does vibrate some!
