2025 CN Safety Train - McBride, BC to Edmonton, Alberta

Each May, the CN Safety train makes a journey across parts of the system, stopping in terminals along the way for events. In 2025, the Safety Train originated in Prince Rupert, BC and travelled across Western Canada to Winnipeg, before heading south to Chicago and eventually on to Montreal. We caught up with the train in McBride, BC and followed it back to Edmonton. 0:00 Intro - McBride Station 0:26 McBride - CN U 76151 04: CN 3022, CN 8101 - 98 cars 1:35 McBride - VIA No.6: VIA 6443 - 3 cars 2:54 West of McBride - CN P 00851 04: CN 3309, CN 3394 - 10 cars 3:58 East of McBride - CN P 00851 04: CN 3309, CN 3394 - 10 cars 4:50 Harvey - CN P 00851 04: CN 3309, CN 3394 - 10 cars 6:05 Moose Lake - CN P 00851 04: CN 3309, CN 3394 - 10 cars 7:04 Yellowhead Lake - CN P 00851 04: CN 3309, CN 3394 - 10 cars 8:50 Jasper (Home) - CN P 00851 04: CN 3309, CN 3394 - 10 cars 11:45 Pulling into Jasper Yard - CN P 00851 04: CN 3309, CN 3394 - 10 cars 14:07 P 00851 04 meeting G 81951 04 17:04 Jasper Yard - CN G 81951 04: CN 3055, CN 3138, CN 3187 - DP 2x1x0 - 210 cars 20:16 Swan Landing - CN P 00851 04: CN 3309, CN 3394 - 10 cars 21:26 Marlboro - CN P 00851 04: CN 3309, CN 3394 - 10 cars 22:10 Seba Beach - CN P 00851 04: CN 3309, CN 3394 - 10 cars 23:07 Stony Plain - CN P 00851 04: CN 3309, CN 3394 - 10 cars 24:08 Stony Plain - CN Q 19851 04: CN 3008, CN 2931 - DP 1x1x0 - 193 cars 26:58 Stony Plain - CN S 72051 04: CN 3944, CN 8304 - 100 cars
