Comments on: After walking train while G3c 4-6-2 2317 took on coal and water at the west end of town, the conductor gets off at the station to fill out the train register. In the steam era grain moving from southeast Saskatchewan moved from Weyburn via the Kisbey and Arcola subdivisions through a terminal at Souris.

Either it was to expedite the train or Diesels had shoved her off passenger trains and no Mikados were available. Another case of a Pacific being assigned to a freight drag.
