No. 1090 was one of the first batch of four D10s to arrive in Nova Scotia, along with No. 1018, No. 1041 and No. 999, arriving in May 1937.[1] Along with No. 999, it had a semi-streamlined skirt under the cab had a Johnson bar reversing mechanism, instead of a power reverse. This made the locomotive somewhat unpopular with crews due to the physical demands of the Johnson bar.[2]The locomotive received several versions of DAR custom paint schemes and was assigned the name "DeRazilly" displayed for a few years by a brass name plate. No. 1090 served on the DAR until almost the end of steam, being sent away to Montreal for scrapping in 1954.
