I seem to remember a museum in Toronto had an ex-CP C-Liner. Is that locomotive still there ? Also anyone know who owns the H-16-66 in Calgary ? Michael Thomas |

The only remaining CP C-Liner in Ontario is in storage at the Canada Science and Technology Museum in Ottawa out of site of the general public. Good thing too. It's a mess! It has been there as long as I can remember. There are three other ex-CP Fairbanks Morris locomotives in Alberta. H16-66, #7009, it is (or was) owned privately by John Kenneth Burbridge I believe, but stored at the CP Ogden shops. |

Correct on the C-Liners; if fact the only C-Liners in existence. I've been in the cab of the unit in Ottawa, and heavy repair and restoration work is required . The PM is intact, however. The Exporail collection in Delson (Montreal) houses the last Trainmaster (H24-66) in existence, as well as an H-16-44. The other information regarding the units in B.C. is accurate. There is also an H16-44 in B.C. |

According to the dieselshop.us, there's a second CPA-16 at Delson as well, and a CPB-16 in DeWinton, Alberta. |

I believe that's incorrect. There are two CPA-16's and that's it. I believe there is a "B" unit in B.C. |

Richard is correct about the CPA-16's. One Ottawa and one in Calgary. No more. However there is no 'B' unit in B.C. There are TWO CFB-16's in De Winton, Alberta. No CPB-16's. |
