SOO 1003 on the move
SOO Line 2-8-2 no. 1003 has become a very popular Christmas Train attraction, and this year it has a very busy schedule. En route from Hartford, WI to Janesville last weekend for one such event, no. 1003 operated on a photo special on the Wisconsin & Southern Railroad organized by Historic Transport Preservation. See the results here.

CPR 2816 Sidelined
Word comes from Calgary that Canadian Pacific Railroad has ended its steam locomotive program. The recent trip to Vancouver and return turns out to have the locomotive’s last trip. After being winterized, the steam crew was notified that their jobs were being eliminated.
Other changes in CPR’s specialty programs, such as the Royal Canadian Pacific excursions and the Holiday Trains, appear to be in the offing as well.
