VIA Rail's New Fleet - LUMI (The YELLOW One) First Revenue Run to Ottawa on Train 37 and More!
Aug 1, 2024
VIA Rail's New Fleet train set number 18 has entered revenue service and is making its first revenue run to Ottawa on train #37. This special set has a unique top and bottom yellow livery that really shines. I have included a few different angles of this train passing by. Before #37 rolls west we have an afternoon westbound EXO commuter train with an ex GO Transit F59PH locomotive. Finally we have a CN transfer move with a pair of SD70M-2s and a hand full of cars.

The headlights of the cars on the highway don't hold a candle to the LED's of these new trains. The new fleet is also equipped with an additional LED light below the main headlight which may have a similar function to the Xenon lights installed on the F40's and P42's. Leave a comment ...
