  1. CP 136 starred in the television series The National Dream based on Pierre Berton’s book of the same name.

  2. Good coal on the way up; then the sacks of coal for the return, from a different source, proved of a poor grade for proper firing.

  3. That’d do it. Do you remember if the stop at Chatsworth included a runby? I think I came across some footage of it.

  4. Sure. I remember the runby. I walked as far south as I could get for a clearing, just to the south side of a creek bridge…but wasn’t pleased with my shot. Due to the time of the year, unless you were by the road with everyone else, the weeds and other growth were a bit too high for a clear shot.
