Big Carloads of Lumber

The crossing signals on both sides of the tracks cast red stop indications but the freight on A446 keeps on moving. True to a lot of the tonnage on the CN mainline, a healthy portion of this train was lumber from western Canada. As testament to this pipeline, I saw packs of lumber on this train wrapped as little as a week before. Lots of 2x4s, but this BCOL flat had 2x10 12 footers and 14 footers going up the hill.
