New train numbers on the CP
Posted by herdebu on Thursday, March 31, 2022 7:59 PM

Listening to the scanner at Glenwood and St Paul the CP has changed its train numbers.  I don't know the reason but guessing it has something to do with the merger.

Yes, it does have to do with the merger. I'm not sure about the midwest but all symbols in the NEUS have been changed. I can send a full list if folks are interested.
