Odd ball unit STL&H 1001 began life as SW1200 MILW 2026 in 11/1954. It went on to become MILW 631, then MILW 706 until eventually becoming SOO 1211. In 1996 it was converted into a slug and numbered CP 1001 until being repainted and becoming STLH 1001 in 1998. In this June 2004 scene at Agincourt yard, 1001 still had another 8 years of life left in it before being retired in 2012. As much life as a slug can have in it that is.
