(New All Yellow Paint Scheme) VIA Rail Siemens Charger Set With Cab Car 2317 Leader at Kingston

My very first catch of the new all yellow livery VIA Rail Siemens charger trainset arriving and departing Kingston Station on its way to Toronto led by Siemens cab car 2317 and pushed by Siemens charger locomotive 2218 in back. This train was identified as train 643. If you liked, please consider subscribing to my channel, leaving likes and commenting down below. Thanks for watching & railfanning with me.

P.S: The new VIA Rail fleet Siemens charger trains run like our Go trains and other commuter rail trains across North America where in one direction the engine is leading the train and the cab car leading the train in the opposite direction. The VIA Siemens charger sets heading in the eastbound direction have the engine leading and the cab car leading in the westbound direction just like the Lakeshore line Go trains. The other new feature for these modern Siemens charger VIA sets is they have a visual train ID and stop announcement system on the doors of each passenger coach to tell you what train it is and what stops it will make along the way.

By the way, I apologize for the shaky footage at the beginning where the new all yellow scheme train is arriving at Kingston Station.
