CN 50417 has been repainted in a retro-scheme to honour the crane used in the construction of the Great Slave Lake Railway which began in 1962. This Wellman model DE 400, s/n 4402 locomotive crane was built new in 1962. The crane is unique in that neither the name WELLMAN or OHIO is cast into the counterweight at the back of the crane. Operator Danny MacIlroy has the 50417 in absolutely pristine condition on this beautiful September day.
