EMD E8 2250 hp 85 mph A-1-A A-1-A dual steam generator equipped
Designed strictly for passenger service these units had no traction motors on the middle axles.

E8 2250HP 1802 one of only three CPR units of this model. It is from the pre-GMD era. EMD #8682 12/49 Ron Visockis
Note: 1802 was the last diesel painted in the old block lettering and colours which was after the new CP Rail Action Red paint scheme was introduced. This was done for a railfan excursion chartered by the St.Lawrence Valley Railway Society, a small Montreal group obviously with some real "pull" at CPR headquarters in Montreal!

Train order for meets with all of the 1800's!
