Canadian Rail #403 1988 March-April
Canadian Rail is published bi-monthly. Front cover, In 1938, the receivers for the Wisconsin Central took delivery of four northern type steam locomotives from Lima. These were the only modern steam locomotives ever owned by any constituent of the Soo Line. They were bought to power the time freights between Chicago and Minneapolis. Emminently successful, they reduced the need for double heading while shortening transit times over this intensely competitive route. Caught just west of Stevens Point, #3002 is pulling the 77 cars which comprise Train #26 on July 26, 1948.
