INTRODUCTION
With the completion of Volume Nine of "Canadian Pacific in the Rockies", it gives me great pleasure to announce that the series is continuing and that in spite of the current recession, orders for our works remain high. We hope that you enjoy this collection of photographs and captions about the original Canadian transcontinental railway and that we can count on your support in the future. As outlined on page 12, we have 39 additional Littlebury photographs for subsequent volumes and during 1983 we have also been fortunate enough to receive 40 prints from Basil Franey which he took in the mountains in 1949. Thus we are now in a position to include photographs of T1 c's at work in the mountains - no mean feat, as the final "Selkirks" stay on the Laggan and Mountain subdivisions was so short that very few prints of these fine locomotives in their original habitat are available.
In Volume Eight I asked for data on the structure above the headlight of 0-6-6-0 No. 5755 shown on pages 1 and 9. It is, of course, the sandbox for the front set of drivers and the first reader to give me this information was George Coop of Melbourne, Australia. In November 1982, my wife and I were met by George at Tullamarine Airport, Melbourne, after a sleepless night flight from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. His first words, "It's a sand dome", startled me and my wife thought George had flipped! At 5:30 in the morning we are not at our brightest. Subsequently, several other readers supplied this information. I should have noticed the pipes
which carried the sand down to rail level as they can be observed in both photographs.
