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.
