CN 3023 EJ&E Heritage Unit Leads Q199 Through Jasper, Alberta + Meet and Horn Show!

Hey everyone! With the highlight of the day in the CN Jasper Yard, I patiently awaited their departure! Once again, I was caught off guard by an eastbound, having only seconds to grab a shot! This time around it was CN 3053 leading Q186, only minutes after the previous train! You’d think I’d have learnt from the previous train doing the exact same thing, but I guess “train brain” got the best of me! After a short crew change, the mid-DPU rolled past and a spot of orange appeared down the line, as CN’s EJ&E Heritage Unit called out at Home! As if 3023 leading in the mountains wasn’t already good enough, the friendly crew gave a nice horn salute as they rolled past! Thanks for watching!
