This mural pays homage to the importance of both salmon and the railway to Port Coquitlam. The train depicted is the 2860 Royal Hudson built by Montreal Locomotive Works in June 1940. The Hudson series of Engines numbered 2800 to 1864. The first in the series was produced in 1929. #2860 has been restored and is currently on static display in the West Coast Railway Heritage Park in Squamish.
