Alberta is landlocked, and separated by a series of mountain ranges from the nearest outlets to the Pacific Ocean, and by the Canadian Shield from ports on the Lakehead or Hudson Bay.

Immigration into the province was eased tremendously by the arrival of the Canadian Pacific Railway's transcontinental line in 1880s.

In the past, telecommunications included telegraphy available through Canadian Pacific and Canadian National.

Following the 1852 Telegraph Act, Canada's first permanent transatlantic telegraph link was a submarine cable built in 1866 between Ireland and Newfoundland. Telegrams were sent through networks built by Canadian Pacific and Canadian National.

In 1882, Canadian Pacific transmitted its first commercial telegram over telegraph lines they had erected alongside its tracks, breaking Western Union's monopoly.

An agreement with Western Union required that U. S. company to route messages in a specified ratio of 3: 1, with three telegraphic messages transmitted to Canadian National for every message transmitted to Canadian Pacific.

In April 1994 the Pacific Fisheries Management Council unanimously approved the strictest regulations in 18 years, banning all commercial salmon fishing for that year from Cape Falcon north to the Canadian border.

" Green Goat " locomotives have been purchased by Canadian Pacific Railway, BNSF Railway, Kansas City Southern Railway and Union Pacific Railroad among others.

Where CNR failed to address costs was largely due to government interference, such as the requirement to purchase locomotives from all Canadian locomotive manufacturers, resulting in operational inefficiencies.

The bilingual name Via or Via CN originated in 1976 as a marketing term for Canadian National's passenger train services and the Via logo began to appear on CN passenger locomotives and cars, while still carrying CN logos as well.

On April 1, 1978, Canadian National's passenger subsidiary Via Rail became a separate Crown corporation, taking with it possession of former CN passenger cars and locomotives.

Hergé names a specific Native American tribe, the Blackfeet, but here his penchant for fine detail noted in his portrayal of 1930s Arabia, India, and China is not so evident: The Blackfoot reservation is actually in northern Montana near the Canadian border, the giant Saguaro cactus is actually found in the Sonora desert of southern Arizona, and the railroad locomotives ( portrayed with the dangling couplers and massive double bumpers ) are actually those of period European equipment.

Although it has always owned its locomotives and coaches, GO's trackage was originally owned entirely by Canada's two major commercial railways: the large majority by the Canadian National Railway ( CNR ) and the remainder by Canadian Pacific Railway ( CPR ).

During the 2001 season, when both steam locomotives were out of service, BC Rail leased No. 4069, a restored Canadian Pacific Railway FP7A diesel locomotive.

The carriages and locomotives are maintained by Via Rail, and the train tracks belong to the Canadian Pacific Railway ( CPR ) who is also the operator of the service.

Montreal Locomotive Works ( MLW ) was a Canadian railway locomotive manufacturer which existed under several names from 1883 – 1985, producing both steam and diesel locomotives.

Protective customs tariffs also discouraged Canadian railways from purchasing American-built locomotives for use in Canada.

The federal government mandated that the new, larger public company purchase locomotives from all Canadian manufacturers to discourage domination of the market by any one manufacturer.

Canadian railways continued to rely heavily upon steam locomotives throughout the 1950s, a time when many U. S. railroads were dieselizing.

By now fully merged into Bombardier, the MLW plant and design bureau also received a spurt of contracts from government-owned CN for the newly-designed HR ( High Reliability ) line of freight locomotives which incorporated the Canadian safety cab or a full-width carbody ; namely the 4-axle HR-412 ( similar to the M-420 ) and the full-width carbody 6-axle HR-616.

Most notably, Canadian Pacific 2800 series 4-6-4 Hudson class of locomotives.

The Selkirk locomotives were 36 steam locomotives of the 2-10-4 wheel arrangement built for Canadian Pacific Railway by Montreal Locomotive Works, Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

They were the last standard gauge steam locomotives built in Canada for a Canadian railroad.

New locomotives were purchased from the United Kingdom and from Canadian manufacturers along with new rail cars.

This meant that Prince Edward Island rail lines had diesel locomotives fully one decade before the rest of Canada saw the last of steam, giving the province a prominent place in Canadian railway history as one of the first regional dieselization projects.

The last of the locomotives built for the Canadian Northern was retired in 1995.

Canadian Pacific Railway rostered 3, 257 steam locomotives acquired between 1881 and 1949, yet only 55 were equipped with boosters.

Field was created solely to accommodate the Canadian Pacific Railway's need for additional locomotives to be added to trains about to tackle both Field Hill, and the Big Hill.

This was possible by the increase in staff from two British, or Indian, officers to twenty seven experienced American railroad men on the same length of line and the introduction of more powerful American and Canadian locomotives.
