Motor helper
Title:  Motor helper
Description:  VIA trains coming out of Central Station got CN electrics to pull them out of the tunnel, with the motor cutting off after pulling the VIA train onto the connecting track at Jct deLest. All VIA trains got a helper, even RDCs. Here CN 6714 is pulling a Senneterre train around the connection, and will cut off, then return downtown for a commuter train.
