I found this interesting bit of information (maybe old news to some) but this could explain CN engines in the Texas neighbourhood. <br /> <br />"On June 6, 1919, Parliament passed an act to incorporate the Canadian National Railway Company Limited. The new company took over the Grand Trunk Pacific in 1920, and with the acquisition of the Grand Trunk Railway itself early in 1923, CN was fully formed. Early in 1998, CN and Illinois Central announced that they proposed to merge through CN's acquisition of all of IC's common stock. CN's network spans Canada from Vancouver to Halifax, reaching into the United States as far as New Orleans. It is the only railroad to link three North American coasts, Atlantic, Pacific, and Gulf of Mexico. The two railroad also has a marketing alliance with the Kansas City Southern Railway, extending shippers' reach southwest to Kansas City and <b>Dallas</b>, and into Mexico through Kansas City Southern's affiliates." <br />--Source, Trainboard.com - CN <br /> <br />Trevor[:)]
