Rare 2-4-0 from Nova Scotia used as part of a sign for the Canadian Railway Museum in Delson, Quebec. I pass within sight of this museum every trip, but alas, CP says we can't stop for a visit...

Without a doubt, it is sure worth a visit instead of sleeping in at the Ruby Foos Bob! Hopefully you'll get there soon.

They also had some 2-6-4s rebuilt into tender locos I saw builders photos of them at hq in glasbay in the 1960s. They were built for man trains for the mines. Then later used for other work after more roads were built and the miners could afford cars.bb

Bob,

Be creative. Conspire with your engineer, run slow, and outlaw at the outskirts of the museum.
If you had planned it properly, you could then arrange a clandestine visit while waiting for the crew from St. Luc to come out and relieve you.

Just kidding of course, if I was you, it would be tempting.
