Video #500 RARE MUST SEE!!!!! CN 721 (BNSF Coal) @ Carvel AB SD70M-2 8808 and CP Unit leading

#500. Wow Clash of the titans here. 3 class 1 railways converge to make this 111 car train. Here we see CN SD70M-2 8808 and CP ES44AC 8847 lead BNSF loaded coal train West. As I understand it. this train comes up north on the CP to Edmonton where it is handed off to the CN to head west to Prince Rupert BC (?) to be exported. The last time I saw this train It had 2 CN units on it. Such a Sweet catch for #500. Love it. Shot @ 14:06 on January 13th 2012. Copyright 2012 Trainman Productions

That's neat. I honestly can't say I have ever seen that before. It look strange when CP/CN are on the same line for freight cars alone. Having these beauty's together is awesome.
