Beautiful and powerful enough to handle the rugged Rockies were these Canadian Pacific 2-10-4 Selkirk type steam locomotives. This one was built in July of 1929 (serial #67929, class T-1a) by the Montreal Locomotive Works. CP called these mighty locos "Selkirks" instead of the lower US label of "Texas" style. Ten were built in the first order in 1929 with another 16 to follow later. Photo is by J.R. Quinn. |
