Original Image of the BR EX SOUTHERN Train No. 35002 at Waterloo, Ontario in the early days of steam locomotive operation.
In the late 19th century, the BR Ex Southern operated a diverse fleet of trains, including the iconic No. 35002. This particular locomotive is a prime example of the era's design and functionality. With its distinctive four-coupled configuration and robust construction, No. 35002 was well-suited for hauling heavy loads across the vast network of rail lines.
The BR Ex Southern played a vital role in the development of Canada's railway system during the late 19th century. By the early 20th century, the company had expanded its operations to include passenger trains and freight services. As the country's railroad network grew, so did the demand for efficient and reliable locomotives like No. 35002.
Today, this vintage image is a rare glimpse into Canada's railway past. The BR Ex Southern was an important part of our nation's transportation history, and we're honored to share its story with you.
