CP FP7 #4069 leads Royal Hudson 4-6-4 #2860 pulling an excursion train from Cloverdale to New Westminster, westbound across the 138th Street crossing of the Southern Rail line in Newton, Surrey BC, on the afternoon of May 2nd, 2009. A 2.5 percent uphill grade meant both engines were working hard.
@archerofloaf No kidding. Maybe working a bit too hard, she ground her wheels LOL!

Thank you so very--very--very much for sharing this with us!!
I wish the 2860 Royal Hudson would do a repeat of the 1977 visit for BC Tourism to San Francisco and Los Angeles in California.
