Once CP started to integrate operation of the D&H systemwide, a 390 was established that ran from Minneapolis to Port of Albany. This train often got SOO power a lot of the time in solid sets. Todays effort is a mix of power, including one of CP's ex NS SD40-2's that was made into a B unit-note the 4th unit with blanked windows-as we see it passing signal 223-1 wrong main on the last lap into Binghamton with a typical train of 91 cars.
