When Preservation Fails...........

Lac La Biche Alberta

the remains CN SD40 #5000 the class unit of the fleet, sit in the Athabasca Northern Railway yard. This unit was rumored to have been donated to the Alberta Railway museum, however the unit has been stripped for parts.

Very sad when things like this happen. I do not know why CN could not have donated this as many thought they would. Hunter Harrison would likely sell his own mother if he could get enough scrap iron from her.
