Description:  An RSD-17 built by MLW in May 1957 and the only one ever built. It was originally numbered CP #7007 and was used as a demonstrator by CP between August and November 1957. The unit then went to CN where it was numbered CN #3899 and tested between December 1957 and March 1958. It then went to PGE where it was renumbered PGE #624 and tested between April 1958 and October 1958. It was purchased by CP in September 1959 and renumbered CP #8921. It was rebuilt and chopnosed by CP in 1988 and eventually retired in May 1995. It was donated to the Elgin County Railway Museum in January 1997.
