A few guys on trainorders.com say the CN has banned them from their trackage due to a derailment in revenue service.

Congrats. Now AMT* is stuck with a white elephant and a line it can't operate because the train needed is banned from operating on its tracks. AMT is probably going to end up electrifying much earlier than expected, and NJT and AMT are going to be stuck with locomotives they can't even dump on the used market. I hope they have the right to sue BBD in their respective contracts...

*Supposedly, the only reason that AMT ended up with the units in the first place was because NJT's large purchase ended up subsidizing the costs for them. AMT wanted them, but only NJT was willing to place a large enough order for BBD to even consider the idea...

Windsor station

Why must you use the name that the white man gave to it? Vive Gare Lucien-L'Allier!
