On March first 2008, while MMA #2 from Montreal was passing thru St. Jean, http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=225368 I noticed 20-25 clay tankers in tow: http://bicotsphotos.fotopic.net/p48750187.html

From infos on another site, these are destined for the Irving mills in NB, exchanging at Brownville with the NBSR.

Irving decided to switch from CN to the MMA for the service for some reason..... hmmmm :wink: :P
