Calgary's Supertrain was cancelled this year, but Mega Train will carry on! This year’s show is sponsored by the Winnipeg Railway Museum. Hours are from nine to five on Saturday, and from nine to four on Sunday. Adult admission is just ten bucks. Youths ages four to twelve get in for a fiver. Children ages three and under get in for free! Admission includes free rides on the Mega Train, as always!
The Winnipeg Railway Museum may be down, but they're not out! Although renovations to the Via Rail Station have forced them to closed for the time being, they've revised their website to include a virtual tour of the museum. It's the next best thing to being there! It's jam packed with great images and tons of historical information. To take the tour click here. 
They first witnessed this eastbound train barreling through Grant's Cut, just outside of Rivers. Then they spotted it just outside of Justice, Manitoba. It showed up for a third time by the Hart grain elevator, then for the last time at Portage La Prairie.
All of these photos were taken on bridges, but Gary was on ground level at Portage when he saw them pass by. He reported that all of the passenger cars were empty, so it was assumed that they were being taken to CN headquarters in Montreal.
