One of a fleet of 500 built in August 1923, this 50’ flat car with straight sides, side mount brake wheel is painted black and stenciled in white. Built by the Canadian Car and Foundry Company, Ltd., most of these 126,000 lb capacity units were still in service three decades later. In 1881, the Canadian Pacific Railway was incorporated to build a railroad to the Pacific, at what is now Vancouver, BC. The starting point was the end of a Grand Trunk line at Callander, ONT. By combining new construction with existing lines, CP created the first true transcontinental railroad in Canada.
