Description:
Just pulling out with another string of Canadian National varnish from the Montreal station is CN #5702. Built by the Montreal Locomotive Works in September of 1930, the 4-6-4 Hudson cut a sharp figure at the head of many passenger trains through the years. After nearly 30 years of service to the CN, the loco was retired and donated to the Canadian Historical Rwy Association ("ExoRail") in Delson, Ontario, Canada. Specs - serial #68396, class K-5-a, 80" drivers, impressive 275 psi boiler pressure, 23x28" cylinders, engine weight of 356,400 lb, tractive effort of 43,279 lb. The photo is from the Dave Shaw collection.
