From: "Norm Pascal" appleglen -AT- shaw -DOT- ca Date: Sun Aug 3 12:38:55 2008 Subject: Very unsual to see a passenger car among the freight. This unit was manufactured in the Bombardier plant in Thunder Bay, Ontario with final assembly in Plattsburgh, N.Y. Its destination is the Altamont Commuter Express rail service in California, which runs between Stockton and San Jose. This car travelled west across Canada and will likely enter the U.S. (Idaho) on the Kingsgate Sub to be picked up by Union Pacific. Photographed at mile 13 on the Cranbrook Sub, July 25/08. image/jpeg, 1280x960 (24bit) Last Modified on Sun Aug 3 12:38:55 2008 ACE_3219.jpg 198423 bytes |

From: "Norm Pascal" appleglen -AT- shaw -DOT- ca Date: Mon Jun 5 23:39:15 2006 Subject: This photo of the Royal Canadian Pacific was taken along mile 97 of the Crowsnest Sub. This is where the train crosses under Highway #3 before entering Sentinel on its way to Coleman, AB. The red locomotive, CP3131 is a last minute substitution for CP4101 which, according to one of the train personnel, "met an untimely death". It will take approximately one month to replace it with another locomotive painted in the classic maroon-and-gray-with-yellow stripes livery of the 1960s. image/jpeg, 1292x898 (24bit) Last Modified on Mon Jun 5 23:39:15 2006 CP3084_2.jpg 139255 bytes |

From: "Norm Pascal" appleglen -AT- shaw -DOT- ca Date: Mon Jun 5 23:37:38 2006 Subject: This photo of the Royal Canadian Pacific was taken June 4/06 at the location of the Frank Slide, mile 86 of the Crowsnest Sub. In the early morning hours of April 29, 1903, Turtle Mountain collapsed, resulting in the greatest landslide in North American history. In 100 seconds: at least 76 people were buried alive under tons of massive limestone boulders; three-quarters of the homes in Frank were crushed like balsa wood; over a mile of the Canadian Pacific Railroad was completely destroyed; and a river became a lake. A short history of this event can be found at "http://www3.sympatico.ca/goweezer/canada/frank.htm" image/jpeg, 1081x778 (24bit) Last Modified on Mon Jun 5 23:37:38 2006 CP3084_3.jpg 149461 bytes |

From: "Norm Pascal" appleglen -AT- shaw -DOT- ca Date: Mon Jun 5 23:36:01 2006 Subject: This shot of the Royal Canadian Pacific was taken just before the rail line crosses under Highway #3 again, near mile 70 on the Crowsnest Sub. The train has left the Crowsnest Pass area and is now in the foothills, heading for the prairies.

From: "Norm Pascal" appleglen -AT- shaw -DOT- ca Date: Mon Jun 5 23:33:15 2006 Subject: The Royal Canadian Pacific on the Lethbridge High Level bridge. At 1839 metres (1.14 miles) long and 105 metres (344 feet) above the water, this is the longest and highest railway steel bridge in the world. It was completed in 1909. This perspective shows just how big this bridge is with respect to the size of the train. June 4/06. image/jpeg, 1152x864 (24bit) Last Modified on Mon Jun 5 23:33:15 2006 CP3084_6.jpg 100160 bytes |

From: "Norm Pascal" appleglen -AT- shaw -DOT- ca Date: Sun Sep 10 13:14:32 2006 Subject: CP3133 (SD40-2) leading CP3118 (SD40-2), CP9507 (AC4400CW) and CP8705 (ES44AC) into a siding to drop off some cars, at Eldon on the Laggan Subdivision, which is in the Banff National Park. The haze in the sky is due to smoke from forest fires (wild fires) on the Washington-British Columbia border.
