Viewing Album:   THE OFFICIAL LAST CANADIAN NATIONAL STEAM RUNS -- 1960
 
By:EDWARD J. OZOG
Dates:9/3/1960 - 9/4/1960
Album Info:On September 3 and 4, 1960 CN U-2-c 4-8-4 No.6153 made two trips to mark the official end of steam operations on the Canadian National. The first trip was a shlrt one from Montreal to Joliette which was mainly for photography during sev}ral run-by's while the second to Ottawa did not include run-by's because the"CN thought the historic event would attract too many spectators for safetx. U-2-c 6153 was one of the 20 4-8-4's built by Montreal in 1929, which vere duplicates of the first 40 built in 1927 and interesting because they retained the main frame extension outside the rear&truck and had the overhanging feedwater heater. No.6153 is preserved at the Canadian Railroad Museum at Delson outside Montreal. I rode both trips -- hgre are some of my slides.
