This release is a rare collaboration of two artists – Len Krenzler
and Robert Landry - combining their strengths to achieve the
best of both worlds, oil paint and digital art combined.

The Canadian Pacific Railway T1B Selkirk number 5920 is portrayed
here in her element. Designed as a mountain engine with
unmatched power, the " Selkirk " was a magnificent locomotive.
With ten 63" drive wheels and the boiler at 285psi it provided
up to 76,000 pounds of tractive effort and was the most
powerful steam engine in regular use with the CPR. With
a distinguished career, this locomotive assisted Princess
Elizabeth over the steep Rocky Mountain grades on her October
1951 tour. Built in 1938 this T1B Selkirk weighed 731,000
pounds and could pull a 1000 ton train over steep mountain
grades. In the late 1950's they were transferred to prairie
duty between Calgary and Lethbridge and could pull a 5000
ton train. Sadly, no T1B's were preserved. A similar model
T1C is on display at the gate to Heritage Park in Calgary.

In this powerful piece, Selkirk 5920 with the "Dominion" train
is just hitting her stride pulling out of Banff under full throttle
on a clear crisp mountain evening. The unique and spectacular
Mount Rundle is her backdrop. When viewing this scene filled
with action and spectacular scenery, one can smell the fresh
mountain air and feel the tremendous power of the steam
engine thunder by.

Regular editions are signed by Ernie Ottwell,
Selkirk Engineer - BC Region.
