O&W 9954 on it's new railroad BC Rail, and perhaps on it's first trip on new turf. During the 1980's BC Rail was desperately short of of motive power and acquired an assortment of second hand locomotives. Eventually 9954 would be overhauled and repainted at the Squamish Locomotive re-build shops and emerge in the BC Rail red white and blue paint along with new number 747.
