I don't think people are aware that from 1907 to 1998 CNW 1385 was never rebuilt, it was just repair after repair. In 1998 it was decided a rebuild was needed and fundraising started. Now with that said I can tell you that the tender has been rebuilt and it is the original one that the locomotive had when it was purchased. The frame has been overhauled and repaired, new tires have been installed on the wheels, a new boiler and firebox were build and installed on the frame.
