Remarks & Notes

A real veteran, CNR U-2-b 4-8-4 6123, sits at Turcot after bringing a freight in from the west. The Canadian National initially called the 4-8-4 the Confederation type and these early locomotives barely missed beating Northern Pacific in introducing the wheel arrangement. This Northern type was built in 1927.
