It was a pre-season special that took place on May 15. Still lots of water in the ponds and snow up on the pass. It was probably a wetter year than what we have seen lately. Back in those days you used to find a pretty good ice pack under the tank at Osier. I haven't seen that in a while.
Here is a shot that was taken the day before the run. I beleive that this would have been the first revenue trip for the 497 on the C&TS. As you can see from the smokebox she is very clean. Sorry for the poor shot I was just starting to dink around with 35mm back then.
