Canadian Pacific 'Trans-Canada Limited'


This ran from MontrĂ©al to Vancouver. According to this webpage, the first train with this name appeared in 1907, then disappeared and reappeared in 1919. The Trans-Canada Limited was doomed by the Great Depression which struck after the Wall Street Crash of October 1929.  It operated one more season in 1930 and was discontinued, its equipment redistributed or stored.
