That was taken in July of 2006. She's owned by the Rocky Mountain Historical Society, and runs between Stettler and Big Valley a few times a year.

Had the chance to ride behind her at "track speed--70 mph" between Toronto and Niagra Falls back in 1977 when she was in "regular service" during the summer. At that speed, exhaust beats disappear, and it sounds like you're riding behind a "Turbo"! Will never forget it. Glad to see she's "still breathing".
