CN Freight in Edmonton, Alberta

[DieselSmoke92]

I know this is an old video but is this subline more active then Edson Submile?

[TrainGeek]

@DieselSmoke92 I'm afraid I don't know, I don't visit Edmonton much. I think it is moderately busy with traffic from the oil sands.

[DieselSmoke92]

@DieselSmoke92 It goes to Calgary and Fort Mac right?

Ya don't see them old SD units that much on CN anymore :(

Is the 2nd locomotive an ex-CP? I think it is. Great video

[TrainGeek]

I'm not sure if it ever was CP but maybe it was. It was owned by Ontario Hydro for a period before being purchased by CN.

@trainzandbridgez101 yeah its an Ex CP SD40-2

[NBAisman]

why dont CN just buy out CP? They got more money than CP anyway.

[wctrain]

if cn buys out cp, cn will close kicking horse and rogers pass

[Nathanrailfan]

You know all that because of what CN did to BC Rail? If you do, I see where you are going with this.

[wctrain]

because cn already has a route through the rockies, though they might keep the line east of golden open to keep running coal trains from crowsnest pass

[CalDaCPRGUY]

Beautiful sound to those workhorses wow i will never get tired of that

[TrainGeek]

I love the thrum of the engines.

Not the SD40-2 is an Ex-CP unit.

[TrainGeek]

It used to be owned by Ontario Hydro and I believe operated by CP.
