I didn't have my camera with me today, but as I was walking to lunch, a westbound CN freight came up the line from the Belleville Via Rail station. As it was on the Moira River bridge I noticed that there was CNR diesel on the front and two orange diesels behind. I stopped to watch and the second diesel was Union Pacific 4719 and the third diesel was BNSF 6709. I have seen UP diesels on the CP mainline down at the lower end of Belleville, but not on the CN mainline. That's power from 3 of North America's largest railways in one train. Are there motive power pools?
