Very interesting photo. Had the train waited a day, the temperature would raise to the point where cold would not bother a switch. Makes you wonder why the CPR sent out a couple engines for only a couple cars. Nice job.

This train may be overpowered in it's westbound journey (pictured above) but the main reason for it's existence is the eastbound run -- lifting loaded autoracks from the Automotive Assembly Plants (Especially Toyota in Cambridge). This is lucrative and time sensitive business -- thus the dedication to running this train.
