Description:  A Hudson 4-6-4, class K-5a, built by MLW in 1930. This was one of five 4-6-4 owned by CN. Originally slated to be scrapped at the end of the steam era in 1960, 5703 received new lease on life when the original 5700, which was marked for preservation, accidentally had a cutting torch taken to it. Realizing their mistake, Canadian National pulled 5703 from the scrap line and renumbered it 5700.
