As seen from the HUGE snow mountain near the VIA Rail station! Canadian National Railway locomotives 2531 (C44-9W), 5525 (SD60F), 2186 (ex ATSF C40-8M), and mid-train DPU 2530 (C44-9W) provide traction for a very long CN intermodal train Q120 (Toronto BIT, ON to Halifax, NS) with 175 cars (11000 feet) of double stack containers passes thru Moncton eastbound on a windy gray morning. This train reportedly had 215 cars (14000 feet) arriving at the Gordon Yard before the Moncton intermodal pad portion of the train was set off. It's hard to believe that just a couple says from May that there is still a 25-30 foot snow mountain. That just shows how much snow the city has received this winter.
