That's a good site. There are several films on there that I enjoyed watching. "Train 406" has a few good action shots w/ sound of a CN Rail CFA16-4 C-Liner.

First three parts of a Ross Rowland documentary. I think his story post-AFT is easier to track down, so this is a nice explanation of how he got started in the steam excursion world.

Covering the first restoration of 611, and the restoration of 1218 back in the 80s.

Fun fact mention Ross Roland on RYPN and watch the shit hit the fan.

This one is always fun and relaxing

I don't know how I never saw this before. It took quite a few tries to load the NFB website, but it was very worth it because recordings of the opposed piston engine are so rare.

They've even got footage of the old CPR Lebreton yards complex that was bulldozed in the 60s (and subsequently left empty for the next ~40 years). As far as I know this is the only film that was ever shot in that area.

Yeah the link was sent to me last summer, I just about fell off my chair when the two A-units rolled into frame. I asked a retired railroader I know who operated C-Liners for the CPR back in the day if the audio was for real and not some canned stock audio. As far as he can remember it's legit. It's the only audio I know of an 8 cylinder F-M 38D8-1/8 engine.

However I know another person who claims to have several minutes of HQ audio of a CPR H16-44 idling and going through the 8 throttle settings while sitting in the yard at Trail, BC. I'm bugging him to retrieve it so we can convert it to an MP3 file.

Hot damn, your pic of CPR No.11/12 looks good (@ Castlegar??). I'm currently trying to figure out which models I will need to replicate the same thing in HO circa 1956.

Enjoy this pic of CPR #4077, the 1st diesel to be written off on the CPR after a fiery wreck which caused 2 fatalities at Osprey Lake. The unit was barely 6 months old. Photo location is probably Medicine Hat, AB.

1chan removes stock name so here it is:

These are two of my favourite vids of a railfan day trip up the CPR's Coquihalla subdivision shortly before abandonment in November 1959:

Although not mentioned, I believe the 2nd vid was taken by the same guy who did the 1st one.

There's some more audio on the Fairbanks Years DVD (Chandos productions) which I used in this episode of my shitty vlog: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stuCnmKY5xU
My 11 is at Farron in that photo. I've got a 4700 series baggage and a Cape series observation in kit form that I need to build to round it out, but I'm fairly happy with it.
I renumbered most of my C-liners. 4077 happens to be among them - I figure that it could use a few years of tribute! I also have 4104, 4105, 4065, and 4053, as they were among the last running. 4053 doesn't have a beaver crest, as shocking as that may be!

Follow-up: My girlfriend and I rode Penticton-Hope last year, and it was pretty wet around Osprey Lake - For all the rain and mosquitoes, it was still beautiful.

Out of curiosity are you on the mailing list of the guy who is scanning Peter Cox's extensive slide collections? There's some lovely shots of FM power in those collections.

>>131547
I am. Quite a kerfuffle, that has been.

>>131548
It's not the first time I've heard of CRO. Do they have a reputation for stealing pictures or something?

>>131549
Very much so. William Baird runs it, it used to be free, but he made it subscription only a couple years ago - makes it harder to find the stolen photos, I suppose. He's an absolutely shitty individual, and constantly posts overly sexy pictures of his long distance girlfriend on his facebook group. I think I might actually hate him.

Anyway, back to them secondary passenger services...

>>131534
I helped source some motion picture and a few pics that were used in "Fairbanks Years". I can say that there is way more 8mm film out there and only a few were made available for the production.

I was out exploring parts of the Carmi sub about 10 days ago. Snow up to my knees. Heheh. I'm going back this summer, I think i'll bring my bike.

>>131547
Funny you should ask, I just heard about it for the first time a couple hours ago. I just got back from a weekly friday night coffee meet that a very small group of modellers and former railroaders have, and one of them mentioned it to me. I'm trying to obtain copies off a guy who saved the colour scans (he ditched the b&w ones unfortunately). I'd love to see them!

That is a nice layout. Regarding the missing beaver shield on unit #4053, that has been an object of intense discussion several years ago among a few people I know. I don't have my notes with me but if IRC it went missing in September 1969 when it went in for servicing at Nelson. It's believed an employee snitched it one night and its current where-abouts are unknown. I'm not sure but I think #4053 had a small beaver shield that fit on the door after a repaint. That's a bit of a mystery among some of the CLC historians.

Ach! I may have my dates above mixed up. #4053 may have been repainted Sept 1969 where upon she received the small beaver shield. I believe in "The Crow & The Kettle" there is a pic of #4053 parked in stall #4 of the Nelson diesel shop that shows the faint outline of the former crest and is obvious that it was recently removed. I REALLY have to get all my files and pics back, I used to all this by heart. :-P
