"Expo_Rail_014.jpg" - image/pjpeg, 3264x2448 (24bit)

While in Canada this week I visited the rail museum (Expo Rail) outside Montreal, enjoy two images of the LAST surviving FM Trainmaster on Earth. It was the first time I ever saw one, these things were massive for their time! As you can see, she is in yellow, maroon and Gray paint... just the wrong shade. And check out the rear view, sorta looks like an inspiration for the last EL caboose scheme! :)

Its too bad none of Lackawanna's 20 survived. This locomotive was one of 20 delivered to Canadian Pacific Railway in 1956, the last year of H-24-66 production. This unit was built by the Canadian Locomotive Company (A branch of FM) for the CP railroad, there was a total of 20 in the order, they were the only ones built in Canada.
