Title:  CN 4-6-2 #5588 - Canadian National
Description:  Running along the open countryside with its passenger train is Canadian National 4-6-2 Pacific #5588. This loco was built by the Grand Trunk Rwy shops in 1911 as GTR #240 but in 1923, moved to the CN roster as their #5588 (serial #1513, class K-3-b). The loco was one of the fortunate few that was not scrapped but instead, placed on display in Windsor, Ontario, Canada circa early 1970's. No date, location or photographer was listed for the photo.

CN 4-6-2 #5588 - Canadian National
Title:  CN 4-6-2 #5588 - Canadian National
Description:  Dramatic nighttime shot taken by Don Wood of Canadian National 4-6-2 Pacific #5588 stopped at the Owen Sound, Ontario, station during a night passenger run. The loco was built by the Grand Trunk Rwy shops in 1911 as GTR #213 (serial #1513, class K-3-b) but landed on the CN roster as their #5588 in the 1923 merger. The loco was donated to and put on display in Windsor, Ontario, Canada in December of 1962.. No date, location or photographer was listed for the photo but the Owen Sound station sign is visible in the background. Bruce Gemmel filled in the missing date and photographer plus corrected the loco number. I am truly indebted to you, Bruce, for your help!
