1416 No.2 running 16 hours late eastbound at Schreiber. c.1970

#1 The Canadian arriving with 1410_1406 newly painted. March 1974.
Note the Business Car behind baggage car.

The business car is the LAURENTIAN. Buck Crump used it for a number of years after retiring, yet stayed a CP board member. The car would be held in Calgary and he would use the car to go to Montreal or Toronto depending on where the meetings were held. One of my early jobs at CP was to pick Mr. Crump up at his home and drive him down to the car amongst other trips as instructed by the Division Superintendent. Doug Phillips

Waterton Park brings up the rear of a short winter consist this day in November 1973.

Waterton Park is again on the tailend with 1411_1404 on the headend. September 1973.

This summer consist is enlarged with several extra coaches (and a third unit) account handling extra traffic accommodation of Junior Rangers travelling to various Provincial Parks under a Ministry of Natural Resources program that for many years saw hundreds of school children taking part in this summer outdoor program. Power is 1404-8566 (RS-10)-1432.
