CP 8757
Title:  CP 8757
Description:  The story behind CP 8757 began with 13-year-old Jacob Hoffer, an Indigenous youth who in the summer of 2021 wrote to CP asking the railroad to consider painting one of CP’s locomotives orange. CP responded positively, and sought guidance from the Orange Shirt Society, a non-profit organization that supports Residential School Reconciliation and creates awareness of the individual, family and community inter-generational impacts of Residential Schools, to develop the special livery.
