Strasburg #89 is a Mogul-type steam locomotive with a wheel arrangement of 2-6-0. It was manufactured in Canada by the Canadian Locomotive Company in 1910 to be used on the Grand Trunk Railway.
Originally named No. 1009, it was renumbered No. 911 in 1919 and became part of the Canadian National Railway in 1923.
It was again renumbered, as #89 this time, in 1951 before being retired in the late 1950s and put in storage in Montreal. In 1961, it was sold to a train collector, F. Nelson Blount and relocated to North Walpole, NH.
It started operating again in 1965 at the Green Mountain Railroad before moving to Bellows Falls, Vermont. It was then sold to Strasburg Rail Road and relocated in July 1972.
