Canadian National , my favorite railway company. This is without doubt one of your best videos MRP , excellent footage of these CN and Huron & Eastern freights. I like the station in Durand with the diamond , a classic railfanning location for sure. CN always has interesting freight cars on they're trains. Awesome locomotives in here especially those standard cab EMD's. Well done and good , mission accomplished. 😁👍Yes !

[@HuronRailProductions]

Thanks! I always like to get to Durand atleast once a year. It’s a good change of scenery and you usually can see a good amount of trains. I wish GLC would’ve ran a train through but I can’t complain with what I got here.

[@MikeG42]

@@HuronRailProductions yes that for sure , you're welcome 🙂

Good old SD40-2 and GP38-2💪🏼. CN SD70M-2, not sure what that all gray ES44AC was, CitiRail maybe, and an SD75I, slamming that diamond. CN definitely loves their SD70M-2’s. Lots of cool stuff in this one, great job👍🏼😎🇺🇸

[@HuronRailProductions]

Thank you! Yeah the all grey ES44 was ex CitiRail.

7:52 is E251, 17:03 is L508. Those are the only symbols I know lol.

[@HuronRailProductions]

Thanks for the info, only way I know the CN ones is if someone else posts about it lol

[@RoyalKingOfTheRails]

@@HuronRailProductions Yeah I only know about them because they takes the Wyes and I know all the symbols on the Holly Sub. It's funny though I've railfanned the Flint Sub but have never been able to learn the symbols on it.

[@HuronRailProductions]

@@RoyalKingOfTheRails I’d have to say unless you live on those lines or spend alot of time there I can see it being pretty tricky to learn each symbol

[@RoyalKingOfTheRails]

@@HuronRailProductions Yeah true, you'll recognize the type of freight they carry over time and get an idea of what the symbol is. That's how I did it. For example a northbound on the Holly sub that takes the Chicago Wye mainly carrying mixed freight at the front and autoracks from the middle to the back is E251. A southbound on the Holly sub that takes the Chicago Wye to merge to the Holly sub carrying autoracks and intermodals would be Q116.

[@HuronRailProductions]

@@RoyalKingOfTheRails I’ll keep that in mind thank you

Born in 1940 Durand, grew up there and you missed the best part of this history. From Steamers loco's to when I first saw a diesel locomotive and was late for school because I was watching this loco. The round house I went to to watch the work on the big loco's, the depot where passages got on trains, where presidents of the US came through. I miss those days a lot. Want history here it is...kzbin.info/www/bejne/naHKm4x9hdyKrdE

[@HuronRailProductions]

I would’ve loved to have seen how that all was like back then, hard to picture steam on the mainline nowadays. I’ll check that video out.
