Brent, I was sent the DVD set by, I believe, the late RHollowel (Robert) about ten years ago. It was a kindness that I can’t possibly forget. It’s a well-done documentary. I just wish it had taken place and been recorded during the HD era of video/TV.

Brent,

Thanks for posting the video. That was quite a project!

I wonder if it will run again. Hunter Harrison stopped the steam programme and his departure isn’t lamented by anyone here.

Apparently it is sitting in CP engine house in Calgary. I had heard that it had a broken drive axle but that it was repaired before it was put in storage.

I saw it in 2007 and got some great photos and video of it running.
