I guess you have to realize one thing in film production time on the jog costs money big money for a film production crew been there done that . Many times . So you shoot what is production the day you are there They are milling a g3 frame script calls for milling a frame so shoot a G3 frame being built keep the costs reasonable . having a film crew in a plant for 5or six weeks costs mega bucks this was not a hollywood epic its industrial photography get the idea of trully how much work had to be done the filmaker was shooting a story to a script on a timetable and keep the costs down.and we are very lucky Canadian Pacific had such a excellent photo department or contracted afilm production company.. Years ago I was in the department in Windsor station there was a massive collection in the arhives and their colour lab was a marvel mind you they served 121 Canadian Pacific related companies .As I have said the film was a joy to watch technoligy from the early twenth centry very interesting DAVID E, HILL A.R.P.S.

The two 3100s were very advanced technologically, including the first Canadian application of Commonwealth one-piece cast frames with integral-cast cylinders and saddles. (Their tenders also had Commonwealth one-piece cast frame beds.) The video clearly shows construction with a multi-piece frame and separatly cast cylinders, etc., suggesting that much of the footage depicts an earlier Class, perhaps a G3 Class 4-6-2. It's only the final finished shots of the #3101 that are truly of the locomotive allegedly represented. throughout.
