Thomasw Report post Posted November 9, 2019 I forgot to mention this but I saw West Coach Express cars 201, 215 and 106 coupled to Via Rail car 8130 at the Via Rail yard behind Pacific Central Station. Is this normal? What’s the big idea here? Is this just for maintenance? If so why are they coupled to 8130? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's nothing unusual to see VIA Rail & WCE equipment tied on together. Those 3 WCE coaches have been there for the past few months. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
