That would of been the perfect electric locomotive design for a commuter rail line!
-
I think CN Diesels may still run this line here & there when the price of clean coal is up?? The huge electrics are long gone! Years ago the line was shut down & the mine town died. This video is very very rare! Thanks for posting!!
-
@Kvr3005 Yes. I've heard that the wires have been removed and the catenaries have been turned to the side, but CN still runs coal trains over it with diesels.
-
Why did they shut it down
-
@Kvr3005 Electrification was shut off in 2000 and I believe the line was shut down in 2004, leading to BCRail's sale to CN.
-
Is this line still around today
-
Absolutely fantastic footage! You, my friend, have earned yourself a subscriber!
