Crewmembers on motive power for fourth class train 922 (GMD GP-9s 4205+4236+4415) look back to see whats holding up the departure of first class train 196 (GMD SW1200RSs 1279+1280+Steam Generator Car). They need the main to run out to their train. After pumping air and a brake check, theyll follow about an hour behind 196 up the Skeena River.
