The A4 class pacifics were designed by Nigel Gresley to haul the LNER’s high speed services. 4489 Dominion of Canada was one of five locomotives allocated to the new Coronation service and named after constituents of the British Empire. The locomotives carried appropriate armorial bearings on the cab side.
When built 4489 was fitted with a whistle presented by the Canadian Pacific Railway and in March 1938 was fitted with a Canadian Pacific bell in front of the chimney. It is portrayed in this condition. On withdrawal Dominion of Canada was donated to the Canadian Railroad Historical Association and is on display at the Canadian Railway Museum.
