Remarks & Notes

Royal Hudson 2860 was a major tourist attraction in the mid-1970s between North Vancouver and Squamish, BC. The BC government supported the train which ran on British Columbia rails daily during the summer months. The train was beautiful and the scenery spectacular. The color scheme remained mostly true to its Canadian Pacific heritage.
