@TheLondonRailfan should head to Boyne/Renolds next time your up their..thats where they switch over to the directional running trakcs, great place ta watch.
What he said. CP tracks from South Parry to St. Clound is northbound both CN & CP. CN tracks from St. Cloud to South Parry are southbound. If you look, all the sidings on these mainlines are rusty because they are rarely used.
Nice video, I believe CN and CP do directional running on part of the CP Parry Sound Sub and CN Bala Sub. Southbound trains use the Bala Sub between St. Cloud and Boyne and Northbound trains use the Parry Sound Sub between Reynolds and St. Cloud.
NICE CATCH

@JayJr2007 So, what your saying is they can't have trains sitting on the siding or else they will derail?

@CPWindsorsub No, I am saying with directional running there are no meets so the sidings never get used.
