Canadian Invasion 4

In August 1990, the Long Lake 58 First Nation and the Ojibways of the Pic River First Nation blocked CN & CP trains from operating through their reserves in Ontario. Both railroads detoured their trains through Chicago. CN over the CNW and CP over the SOO. The result was one heck of a day at Deval tower. After about the 6th train called out of Bryn Mawr, the Deval operator said, "I wanna go home" over the radio.
