CPR Selkirk

[Robin Matthysen]

Alan, in the CN forum, you asked about the CPR Selkirk. I am posting this here as it is a CPR locomotive.
It's 5291 type 2-10-4

Thanks Robin, they are one of my favourite Canadian locomotives http://www.trainboard.com/smile.gif I assume they were built to haul heavy trains through (or over) the Selkirk range. They look like an extended Royal Hudson.
