Canadian Pacific Railway locomotives 8641 (ES44AC), 8772 (ES44AC), 5003 (EMD SD30ECO), and rear remote 8863 (ES44AC) power CP loaded unit grain train 301 westbound at Lytton, BC hauling 107 cars of hoppers.

Sorry about the late start to this video, train was already coming when I got to this location.

This is where the Thompson River meets the Fraser River.

CN and CP use directional running between Basque, BC (mile 58.4 of the CN Ashcroft Sub) and Mission, BC with all westbound trains using the CN track and all eastbound trains using the CP track.

Filmed at 12:55pm, Friday June 10, 2016 at about mile 97 of the CN Ashcroft Subdivision.
