As mentionned by Darren (CN/NECR), the CN 328 left Montreal tonight (nov 19). It ran thru St-Jean @ 21h40 with CN 5268 (SD40-2) and yes... NS 8435 (C40-8W). There was only about 20 cars hooked to it. Maybe 10 box and 10 lumber (Chaleur I think). I even got night pics for you Darren of this FIRST train. :-) . BTW how did you get all these details about this train? Couldn't find anything except for the statements made by CN, CP and NS...
