Alan,

I would suggest that you look up trainweb.com and check out the CP
roster for photos.

I checked Trainweb and didn't see much, but then on the other hand, wasn't looking much to begin with.

I did however find the sites View from Galt Station and the CPR diesel loco roster, they were good sites.

the U.S. Coast Guard dock.  I got a tour of one of the Coast Guard ships
including the engine room.  It was gas turbine powered, but had 2 FM 12
cyl. O.P. engines that were the same model as those used in the H24-66
Train Masters.  They were shut down, of course, so I didn't hear them
run either.  I should mention that our little ships were powered by a
marine version of the ALCo 539 6 cyl. used in S-3 switchers.

I hope someone eyes a trainmaster for possible future restoration, it would be so nice !.
