I believe that this locomotive was driven and parked at IPSCO by my father E.(Ervin)E.Deimert of Regina. He started shoveling coal around 1946 on G4 or G5 class Engines. He was 17 yrs old. I would be grateful for any additional information you have on the restoration if it has happened Barry Deimert

The English Magazine "Steam Railway" is reporting that the Canadian Pacific Railroad is to restore the 1928 Canadian built 4-8-4 3101 with a budget of 1M. The above story is not quite correct: I called IPSCO this morning (November 16 2007) and this is what they said: "The locomotive is privately owned by us. We purchased it for scrap in about 1960 and decided to display it rather than cut it up. Yes I can confirm that we have been approached by the Canadian Pacific Railroad and have agreed to allow them access to the locomotive to perform a feasibility study to ascertain if restoration to operating condition is possible. The locomotive currently remains in the ownership of IPSCO. It is standing outside and is deteriorating. We fully support the Canadian Pacific in their endeavor" TH

This engine and CP No. 3100 were the only     4-8-4 Northern types built for the Canadian Pacific. They ran trains 21 and 22, the overnight sleepers between Montreal and Toronto.
