Per CP employee, CP has recently issued a directive that all trains must operate with at least 100 cars. The implication for the 252/253 manifest trains between Saratoga Springs and Montreal is that these trains, which connect with 11R/14R for B&M interchange at Mohawk yard, as well as 30T/31T for Binghamton/NS traffic at Saratoga, will henceforth usually run every other day. Unclear how this impacts PAS, if at all. But clearly it's not good news.
