Remarks: CP 9137 with train #221 pass the wreck site where #104 rear ended #116. No one was hurt in the mishap, but it shut down the railroad for three days.
Very good work getting this video Jack. Very interesting touch with the train passing the derailment. However, Don't really imagine that CPR management was overly impressed with their new lot of "scrap metal".
So very glad and thankful that on one was hurt. But that is an unnerving scene.......even a bit scary when one considers the amount of tonnage and energy involved in derailments and collisions.
Thanks for posting :)

What's the railroad alternative when the CP Heron Bay Sub was shut down ? Is that the CN rail line to make passing CP trains elsewhere on the Heron Bay Sub ?
The picture was very,very amazing.
