By happenstance going to get contacts for the wife, I saw a westbound train with 2 visiting ICE units on the tailend. We headed towards NTW and saw it stopped at University. It turned out to be a CP train waiting to get into Shoreham. I had just enough time to race home grab the camera and see the tailend at Frieighthouse Road. I caught it at CP University (where I was scoped out by a Sheriff) then grabbed shots of the duo crossing over the river. It actually stopped on the bridge and crept slowly enough into Humboldt for me to get to 44th. Pictures coming later.

Any one in the know, know what train that was and what the IC&E units were doing on it? |

It was the change off out of St. Paul. The powers at be decided it would be a good idea to send the crew up there just to switch out cars and take a train to St. Paul. Very odd. |

I also saw two ICE units on the 599 at Glenwood Yard last year. |
