United States Railroads Operating in Canada

Delaware and Hudson 17 meeting CPR 1801 at Westmount, Que. June 1968. Jim Boyd/Joseph Testagrose Collection.

Note: This was the only line in Canada where for a few short years U.S. and Canadian roads passenger trains operated with A-1-A wheel arrangement passenger units. There were only ever three CPR E8's built by EMD in the US for the CPR B&M Pool between Montreal and Boston. D&H's only such units were four former Santa Fe PA4's built by Alco and acquired for passenger service between Albany and Montreal. They were later rebuilt with new Alco 251F engines rated at 2400 hp.
