BC Rail Squamish Sub - Brackendale

A long heavy southbound whips by station name sign "Brackendale" (north of Squamish). The first set of cars are filled to the brim with woodchips. Woodchips will fall off the cars like snow as they make their journey all the way to North Vancouver. Anyone care to count how many cars this train has? One of the many tall, snow-capped Tantalus Mountain Range peaks is in the background. Filmed b/w 2002-2004. Double Ditch Light Productions.

I love Canadian trains, especially BC Rail with their K5H horns.  Too bad CN had to buy them out.

[ATributeToBCRail]

Ya tell me about it. Some of the BCR units are getting their K5H horns replaced with less than desirable ones :(

@mrtrainboy019 Most are equipped with K5l's. I always thought that they had K5LA's. But the A stands for American.
