Canadian Pacific Railway No. 1246 was one of three 1200-series Canadian Pacific Railway locomotives in the Steamtown USA collection. Like CP 1293 and CP 1278 this locomotive was one the operational engines at Steamtown. When Steamtown left its Bellows Falls Vermont location in the fall of 1983 the engine led the farewell to Vermont excursions. There were two such 100-mile (160 km) excursions through a landscape of covered bridges rushing streams and scenic countryside.
