1:48 Scale. An O-Scale model of the Canadian Pacific H1b Class Hudson Locomotive #2816 provides a graphic, side by side comparison of 1/4" to the foot railroading vs. the 12" to the foot variety utilized by CPKC. This image was captured during CP #2816's public display in Shreveport, LA on May 24th of 2024, as part of CPKC's "Final Spike Steam Tour." The nicely-detailed model was provided by a 2816 fan, who brought it to the exhibit at the Shreveport Yard specifically to make photos similar to this one. The model was manufactured prior to the real 2816's most recent restoration, in which the boiler jacket was painted a somewhat darker gray color than it had been previously, which explains the apparent color difference between the model and the actual locomotive.
