CP 4-6-4 #2860 - Canadian Pacific
Title:  CP 4-6-4 #2860 - Canadian Pacific
Description:  Note the royal crest above the headlight on this 4-6-4 Hudson. After a sister loco #2850 pulled the train for visiting Queen Elizabeth in 1939, the British Royalty allowed the Hudson class to be named the "Royal Hudsons" in honor of the excellent service they provided. No photographer, date or location was listed so approximations were used to post the photos now in my collection.

CP 4-6-4 #2860 - Canadian Pacific
Title:  CP 4-6-4 #2860 - Canadian Pacific
Description:  CP 4-6-4 No. 2860, a Royal Hudson steam locomotive, was built by Montreal Locomotive Works (MLW) in June 1940 for the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) and was used for transcontinental passenger service until 1956. After being damaged in a 1956 derailment, it was moved to Winnipeg before being withdrawn in 1959. Saved from the scrap line, it was restored and operated excursion trains in British Columbia from 1974 to 1999, becoming the only regularly scheduled steam excursion over mainline trackage in North America. Since 2010, it has been on static display in Squamish, BC at the Railway Museum of British Columbia. No photographer, date or location was listed so approximations were used to post the photos now in my collection.
