What beautiful vintage railway carriages. LRC trains just don't cut it.

@CPRCanadian u got that right. hopefully one day it will run again

Also, for those of you asking about what the Museum's plans are for the 1201...no one knows. She is hidden in the back of the restoration shop behind the museum. I have a terrible feeling that we won't see her return to service as there was a notice on the Daily Commercial News about proposed plans for the museum to build a 50 million dollar expo hall for the excess inventory of artifacts (e.g. 1201).

No these excursions were carried out by the Museum of Science and Technology in Ottawa. Most passenger cars used in these excursions and the main ones from the museum up to wakefield, PQ (same line the Hull Chelsea Wakefield 909 excursions run today) belonged to The Bytown Railway Society (see Branchline).
The VIA cars were rented out to Bytown directly from VIA Rail for each particular excursion (depending on ticket sales, etc).

This marvelous machine was converted from coal to oil during her rebuild in the 1970's. I recall riding in a heavyweight coach pulled by this classy engine in 1981 from Ottawa to North Bay, at speeds up to 110 km/h. An unforgettable trip.

Thanks for that input.. you know more about her than I do. I just wish there was money to re-furbish whatever is needed to have her back out running again ! There can't be that much wrong to be re-certified again, but I don't know. She sure seemed like a horse that loved to run !
