Canada seems to have really adopted the use of DPUs. Most of the long trains I saw on my trip in 2019 had 1 or 2 in place.

The tracks in BC are maybe the most difficult of North America because of it's many sharp bends and steep grades. The mid DPU's are really needed to get the trains through the mountains. CP #603 even has a double mid DPU

How long does it take for the 198 to get from Vancouver to Illinois? Does it make any set offs along the way or is it a straight shot?

I don't know exactly how long it will take, it makes several stops to drop off or pick up cars along the way and i can imagine that has an effect on the time it takes to complete the trip
