One of only two CPR 4-8-4s, here awaiting display at Ottawa. The other, 3101, is at Regina, Saskatchewan, both were converted to oilburning about 1956.http://saulnadler.railfan.net/display.c ... ntario.jpg

Today, she is in immaculate shape inside the Museum of Science and Technology, in Ottawa. Even inside the building, and standing next to a Royal Hudson, a CN 6400, and a CP 4-6-0, thieves in the guise of Museum visitors have removed some of her cab parts. THe locomotives of the Museum of Science and Technology are in beautiful shape. The 6200 out front is missing parts, but many are stored inside the warehouse to prevent further pilferage. Ottawa is less than a day beyond Montreal, and I highly recommend the museum to those who are visiting ExpoRail in Montreal. BTW, Ottawa is a beautiful city.
