Railpictures.ca - Daniel Odette Photo: CN 422 is nothing short of 3 miles long today, with approximately 200 cars. CN 2289, 5411, 8841 head up this massive train as it charges through Jordan. In the distance on the south track is CN 331, hot on 422′s tail. It was so close behind it would have to sit at Jordan for over 10 minutes so 422′s block could clear. It is very rare for freights to follow this close to each other on the CN Grimsby Sub east of Stoney Creek, today was a nice exception. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography
