| Long before an EMD SD40 wore the Canadian Pacific number 5923, this 1938 Montreal Locomotive Works built 2-10-4 "Selkirk" (serial #69113, class T-1b) had the honor to wear it. This loco was part of the 2nd order placed by CP to the MLW for these mighty oil burning brutes. Specs - 63" drivers, impressive 285 psi boiler pressure, 25x32" cylinders, engine weight of 447,000 lb, tractive effort of 76,905 lb. J.R. Quinn photo |
