    Thanks for the comment A.J.

    I believe she was giving rides this day to visitors up and down the yard tracks as well.

    Great shot!
    I believe that is a Fairmont M19 ‘one-lunger’ 2-man inspection track motor car wearing a somewhat modern fiberglass cab.
    The cast iron ‘engine’, flywheel, and single spark plug & wire are visible below the silver painted radiator.
    The electric ‘air horn’ trumpets on the roof were not standard equipment on track motor cars at CP. :-)
