My second shot of CN train 408!

Canadian National Railway locomotives 2099 (ex ATSF C40-8W), and 2426 (Cowl C40-8M) slowly lead CN manifest train A408 (Moncton, NB Gordon Yard to Dartmouth, NS) out of Truro, NS hauling 59 cars now after their Truro setoff.

CN 407 was delayed about 8 hours at Sail Springs, NS due to a drawbar break.  The train also likely had to re crewed before containing on after the huge delay.  CN 408 would normally depart Truro around 1am.

Filmed at 10:47am, Wednesday January 10, 2018 at mile 63.5 of the CN Bedford Subdivision.
