I was doing some more searching and info-finding. Here are my findings: <br /> <br />The Elko DT-2 is CPRail #15 <br />The Canal Flats DT-2 is CPRail #14 <br />Both appear to be soon headed to the Fort Steele museum to be restored. <br /> <br />It looks like 23 were made (EDIT: I found a site with a roster. They were numbered from 10 to 23. That means that there was 13 made) , <br /> <br />I would be interested in ANY INFORMATION ON THE LOCATION OF ANY DT-2'S! <br /> <br />Here's some info on what I learned <br /> <br />#23: Scrapped in 1985 [:(] <br />#22: Used by South Simco Railway,in Ontario (Thanks KVR Fan!) <br />#21: N/A <br />#20: N/A <br />#19: In Champion Park, Okotoks, A.B. <br />#18: Scrapped In 1977 [:(] <br />#17: Parts Machine for #22 at South Simco Railway in Ontario <br />#16: N/A <br />#15: In Elko, B.C. <br />#14: In Canal Flats, B.C. <br />#13: Location N/A. Last owned by "Skibstead"? <br />#12: Privately owned in Thunder Bay <br />#11: N/A <br />#10: N/A <br /> <br />(Just a Note about this: I used the ownership database to record some of the Numbers. It does not give me anything about the location, and it does not have B.C. on the list, so it is incomplete.) <br /> <br />A pic of the switcher in Canal Flats is also in a Book Called "Critters, Dinkys And Centercabs" <br /> <br />Ownership Reports of switchers <br />[url]http://www.railways.incanada.net/industrials/industrials.html[/url] <br /> <br />Fort Steele Railyard Pictoral & Info <br />[url]http://www.geocities.com/fortsteelesteam/First.html[/url] <br /> <br />A DT-2 Roster. No info on it, except for the loco numbers <br />[url]http://www.trainweb.org/galt-stn/cproster/locomotive/0010s/0010.htm[/url] <br /> <br />"The Comprehencive guide to Industrial Locomotives", "Critters, Dinkys, and Centercabs", Along with the locations of switchers. <br />[url]http://www.sonic.net/~jayreed/[/url] <br /> <br />Thanks for the Pics of #15. About the model: I am Thinking "If you want somthing done right, you gotta do it yourself" So I'll see what I can do! [:D] <br /> <br />Keep those Pictures coming! [8D] <br /> <br />Chris
