Canadian Pacific's Saskatchewan Main

Canadian Pacific's main line west of Moose Jaw through Saskatchewan is busier today than anytime since World War II and carries the most tonnage in its long history. Just east of Moose Jaw CP's rapidly growing business from Chicago via the former Soo Line joins the transcontinental main line. Pushed by improvements in productivity made by rival Canadian National, Canadian Pacific has fought back by adding hundreds of new alternating current diesels, new higher capacity cars, and longer trains with distributed power. All of this is showcased on CP's main line across the Saskatchewan prairie. This line handles all of CP's transcontinental traffic between eastern and western Canada and the rapidly growing transcontinental business to and from the States. This DVD shows over twenty-four hours of action on CP's Saskatchewan Main between Moose Jaw and Swift Current in October of 2003. Canadian Pacific's Saskatchewan Main is two hours and three minutes in length.
