Of the many 44 Tonners which survive, there are three known in Canada, this example, one in Ogema, Saskatchewan which, at last report was still in use, and a third in Port Stanley, Ontario, status uncertain. Historically speaking, the engine was initially designated "7551", a class Y-1-a locomotive. It was renumbered "7752" in December of 1950. It seems to have been again renumbered "2" in June of 1956. GE serial number (or model number) 28300, it appears to have been built in May of 1947. In April of 1965 it was sold to Bowaters Mersey Paper of Liverpool, NS and acquired by the museum in 1991.
