Canadian National Railway locomotives 3013 (Tier 4 ET44AC), and 2859 (ES44AC) lead empty potash train B731 (Saint John, NB to Yarbo, SK) eastbound at Allison, NB approaching Moncton's Gordon yard hauling 102 cars of empty Canpotex potash hoppers.

After a crew change at the Gordon Yard, 731 will head north-west on the Napadogan Sub.  The train symbol B731 is rare because normally CN handles the empty potash hoppers on regularly schedule manifest trains like 406 East and 305.

Filmed at 5:38pm, Wednesday November 1, 2017 at mile 4.22 of the CN Sussex Subdivision.
