Pride of the CP

For your consideration - the result of when craftsmanship and machinery meet.



The Royal Hudson.

She makes all the other locomotives jealous. Or she did. Whether she'll ever run again is up in the air, but that's another story for another time.

    It is an original locomotive, preserved and fixed up. Other than the "British Columbia" sign, though, that's what they looked like when they were dragging passenger trains over the Rockies.

    This example is #2860. Of a group of sixty engines, three (incl. this one) survived, and this is the only one that still runs.
