Comments on: The clouds are low and things are quiet in Kelowna yard where a lone lumber box and 44 tonner 4 sit, accompanied by a couple of reefers and an insulated box car at the team track in the distance. Not too long ago, you might find the Railiner from Kamloops awaiting its 6:30 PM departure (arriving at 11:00 AM after a three hour, 30 minute run)–this train was shown in the October 1962 passenger time table but gone a year later…Number 4 would be retired in May 1967 and sold to Stelco in Edmonton; it was donated to the Alberta Railway Museum in 2012.
