It looks like #8906 was being sent to Striegel for scrapping. The
photographer has another photo he took of #8906 at the same location
and day(?) and it clearly shows the builders plates and class plate
removed and the unit appears dead in tow (pretty clean exhaust for an
FM! hehe!).

shows CPR 8906 coupled to a B&M caboose at White River Junction in
1966. This is the first I've heard of CPR F-M's on the Newport Sub,
east of Montreal, for that matter. Was this unusual, or have I just
not been paying attention?
