IRM 1167, Ivaco
IRM 1167, an ex.CN GMD-1 sits in the sunlight at the Ivaco Rolling Mills in L'Orignal, Ontario.
Originally built as CN 1067 in November 1959, it went through one rebuild at the Pointe Ste-Charles Shops in Montreal sometime in the mid 80's. This one had its three-axle trucks swapped for two-axle trucks, had it's fuel tank enlarged to 2000 gallons, and received rebuilt steps.
Eventually it would be sold to BM Metals in Sudbury, and saved from the scrapping torch a few years later by IRM for the purpose of preservation.
1167 appears to be in good shape. However, whether it still operates on the property is unknown.
