...here as in Western Canada,I live within reasonable distance from a railway going out to a huge coal and container port. When going down to the tracks to see the trains going by you will see these most often.

There is also the CN Extra east, I saw it two weeks ago down there. The interesting thing about this train is that its so long that the entire line has to be cleared before it leaves. This train is a container carrier thats just under 2 and a half miles long.
Trains around here...
