Dominion Atlantic Railway Steam Locomotive No. 32, Blomidon

Built 1907 by Baldwin Locomotive Works. Class 10-32-0.

According to Gary Ness on page 6 of "Canadian Pacific's Dominion Atlantic Railway (Volume 1)", this engine and her sister, No. 33 Glooscap, were built in 1907 by Baldwin Locomotive Works in Philadelphia for the D.A.R. and after the C.P.R. takeover of the D.A.R. were frequently used on the Kentville-Kingsport run pulling the school trains. This locomotive is not listed in the Canadian Pacific Railway Diagrams and Data (1947 Revised) edited by Omer Lavalee, and Gary Ness reports that it was scrapped in 1941.
