Comments on: In addition to two GE 25-tonners at their Taber factory, Canadian Sugar Factories had one at Picture Butte, GE s/n 32636 of 1956-05, shown busy switching carloads of recently harvested sugar beets just received from CP on Thursday 1974-10-03. This unit was later numbered 1501 and worked in several other Alberta industries, and is now in the CP/E&N roundhouse in Victoria, BC, in private ownership. Map pin is an approximation since most traces of that operation have succumbed to history in the intervening 51 years.
