- Description
- A view of the Sante Fe, type 4008. This was the largest engine used by the C.N.R. because the trip to Rainy River and Atikokan was hillier than the average prairie landscape and required more power. The final run for the '4008' was on December 2, 1958, with engineer John Sirman and fireman Don Marchuk as part of the crew. The average water capacity was 7900 gallons and burned 18 tonnes of coal.
