Scope and content
Photograph depicts the CPR Glenfir passing loop, 15 miles northeast of Penticton on the Carmi Subdivision, at mile 118.9 from Midway. The way freight is on the down grade of 2.2% towards Penticton and the maximum speed permitted is 20 mph. The train consisted of 2 locies, 1 boxcar, 4 tank cars, and a caboose. The photo was taken at 1pm on a Tuesday and there are only 2 way freights in a week. The switch rail behind the photo is dated 1913 (therefore original) but the loop rail was dated 1932 and 1934. The loop is about half a mile long. The view is looking north from the upper portion of the loop.
