This locomotive was famously found decades ago hidden away on an isolated line in Manitoba after being sold 11/1918 by the CPR. It was a real find. A fourth 4-4-0 in Canada when only three (CPR 29, 136 and 144) in New Brunswick were thought to exist. Built 4/1882 by Dubs & Co. Glasgow, Scotland. Rebuilt CPR 7/1909.
