Engine 45 Alexander (ex-CPR 503), 'Alco', November 1902.
Kentville, 1931.
Before the ravages and deferred maintenance of the Great Depression and World War Two, a similar engine to 44 presented a much different appearance. I think the 'coaling facilities' are also shown in this photo ... or the ash pit (left foreground) has just been cleaned out.
