http://abpr2.railfan.net/abprphoto.cgi? ... soo735.jpg I suspect a transcription error. Soo steam was dead by early '55, except for a couple of fan trips, but I don't recall ever reading that 735 pulled any trips. I suspect the correct date is 1951. By the way, this is the engine that CP wanted to bury in Minot. |
