Remarks & Notes

CN train 310 slowly rolls east from Swan Landing towards Hinton, AB. Temperatures in the 90s have helped kindle forest fires and caused the CTC system to fail, so trains are running slow, ready to stop in the visual distance of the engineer. The weather also created unusual lighting conditions in the late afternoon/early evening light.
