CP 2246 leads a Holiday Train as it has done every year since 2014
Title:  CP 2246 leads a Holiday Train as it has done every year since 2014
Description:  Prior to that year, the Holiday Trains had been hauled exclusively by AC4400CWs since their inauguration in 1999. In 2014 and '16, 2249 hauled the US train while 2246 was assigned to Canada's train. This is also the first year I've caught it when the sun has been out for its daytime run through south-central Wisconsin, which brings out the clean red paint but dampens the colorful animated Christmas lights.

Lighting up the cold winter's night
Title:  Lighting up the cold winter's night
Description:  Of course my lens fogged up as the train approached, I must have breathed on it just so. Still, given my lack of good results with pan shots in the past, I'm rather pleased with how these turned out at 1/20 sec.

CP 2246 powers the US Holiday Train for the fifth straight year
Title:  CP 2246 powers the US Holiday Train for the fifth straight year
Description:  These trains were powered by CP's ubiquitous AC4400CWs until 2014, when a GP20C-ECO (2249) made its first apperance. 2246 has done the honors south of the international border every year since. I know these trains aren't run for the benefit of us "foamers," but something more special like an F-unit or one of the recently unveiled "Heritage" SD70ACus would be more appropriate in my opinion.
