| Remarks & Notes |
| CPR C-Liner 4104 is dead in consist as it heads east on the Laggan Sub for repairs in Calgary. The other 4 units are working hard up the 2.2% grade past Wapta Lake to the Great Divide at Stephen a mile or so ahead. The steam hogheads used to call this place 'Resurrection Point' as they approached a flatter part of the grade where they got some steam pressure back after struggling up the Big Hill from Field, BC. |
