Her headlight cutting a radiant beam through clouds of her own steam, CP moves under her own power for the first time since 2013. In preparation for her part in CP's "Holiday Train at Home" program, the locomotive was tested for a few days beforehand to ensure that there would be no issues arising from her long period in storage. In a testament to the quality of her design and the work done by CP's steam crew in preserving her, there were no issues whatsoever and the locomotive operated flawlessly.
