    Maybe at 4:08 that "bridge" is headed to Lytton, BC. The whole town burnt down due to a fast moving wildfire starting within the town. Major structural damage to the CN bridge and track as well as some damage to the CP line. I'm not going to say how the fire started, I'm sure people can figure that out.

      @Darkcow77 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Haven't heard anything despite living in MRL country. Did see a post on a forum about a possibility, but you'll have to take that with a grain of salt since anyone can post anything on the net, true or false.
      According to the writer, it seems 4318 has found itself in HPH service. Did some research and that is horsepower hours, or the term used when companies share engines. A lends B x# of engines for x hours at x HP/engine. B at some point has to repay that by lending their own engines. The writer also said BNSF doesn't except older power, so the SD70ACe have to be used.
