With close to 10000 tons on the drawbar it is all upto CP AC4400CWM 8062 + EMDX SD70ACe-T4 7205 operating mid train to lift 420's train up the ruling grade on the sub; Neys Hill.
CP 420 snakes its way into the Steel area, passing over the Steel River. Next, the Steel tunnel followed by Steel siding! A very scenic few miles of track away from the shores of Superior.
CP 118 passes through Marathon as smoky skies from several fires in Northwestern Ontario linger in the air. With a south wind off Superior, the smoke is pushed inland.
Several times per day the Cando switcher delivers and picks up cars from the CP yard for the Terrace Bay mill. They have about a mile or so spur to the yard from the mill.
