You may want to do a little more research, BC Rail is a crown corporation owned by the British Columbia Government. The assets were leased to CN for $550 million upfront and (up to) 60 years of annual payments of $22.5 million. The President of BC Rail is an employee by the British Columbia Legislature, and not CN. There is a line item in CN's annual report every year denoting this.
I wish I could see a Canadian National locomotive, and any of the other companies, but they're probably exclusive to America, I see Canadian Pacific locomotives, when I can catch a train which is rare for me. Actually I was very lucky to catch the Holiday train twice! I'd love to see the new Canadian Pacific heritage units dedicated to our Veterans. Oh my gosh a BC Rail loco! 8:07 woah a slug car cool!
You only covered recent acquisitions. CN was originally formed from several bankrupt lines, including Grand Trunk. Former CN Telecommunications employee here.
Yeah, I would've loved to include older stuff like the NAR, PGE, GTP, but there's no units left with those road names/paint. I wish CN would honor more of their history.
@@TheWinnipegRailfan Yes, GT always had the same paint scheme and logos of the parent company, and the dispatcher who I lived next door to in the 60s, was Canadian. Their logo ( previous to the GT logo) had a maple leaf background.
Yo Winnipeg railfan, I’m in Winnipeg as well, I know a lot about trains so I find it cool that I got some railfans in Winnipeg, I railfan at saint Boniface
