No. 400
|
In 1925, the Canadian Pacific ordered two locomotives from the shops of Henry Greenly, located in Shalford, UK. These locomotives were perfectly scaled-down replicas of the CP's new 4-6-2 Pacific types, and were displayed alongside their full-sized counterparts at the CP's grand unveiling of the type. The first of these two would eventually become the WF&P's No. 400, being purchased by the railroad in March of 1949. Before coming to the WF&P, No. 400 operated at amusement park. It is the railroad's 'flagship' locomotive, although out of service undergoing extensive running gear work. It is hopeful that 400 will return to service in 2022.
