Remarks & Notes 
This is the Wisconsin Central Santa Train, which brought holiday cheer to thousands of children in northern Michigan and Wisconsin. Sadly, after ten years of operation under WC, Canadian National CEO E. Hunter Harrison cancelled this train because "No money could be found in the budget." I suppose that's why Harrison's salary is almost $30,000 per day. After all, someone has to cut the "waste" out of the company so it can make as much profit as possible.
