Remarks & Notes 
CN SD40-2W no. 5276 and CN SD40 5155 slide a westbound train through Matsqui, BC as the late day February sun pops through storm clouds in the Fraser Valley. I believe this train was headed to Thornton Yard, although several CN trains a day were detouring into Vancouver at the CN-CP interchange here in Matsqui. This was due to a vessel damaging the BN/BCH/CN bridge over the Fraser River between Thornton Yard and New Westminster, CN's normal route into Vancouver.
