BC Rail's M630Ws did not lead that often because they were not equipped with Locotrol. So when you got one in the lead you were fortunate. I got them as leaders 2 or 3 times. In this case the train was a second section of #14 running between Lillooet and Squamish. The first section no doubt did all the heavy lifting and likely ran with Locotrol-controlled remotes. 

This was a pleasant chase for a couple of hours, although I do remember that because of the time of day the light was often not ideal. But, I'd love to be able to go back!
