Online Lecture: The Locomotives of John Street, Part 2

by Adam Peltenburg

TRHA historian Derek Boles will continue with his presentation on the Canadian Pacific Railway’s steam locomotives at Toronto’s John Street Roundhouse. Part two of this mini-series will deal with some of the railway’s most iconic engines, including the 4-8-4 Northerns, the 4-6-4 Hudsons and Royal Hudsons, and the 4-4-4 Jubilees. Also included are the more utilitarian yard engines as well as foreign motive power of the New York Central and Toronto, Hamilton & Buffalo
