This locomotive is on permanent display on railroad tracks outside of the exhibition hall located inside of the Canadian Museum of Science and Technology. This allows the locomotive to be displayed inside the exhibition hall on occasion and to be moved to another building on the museum's ground for maintenance purposes by the Bytown Railway Society.
There are no fees to view the locomotive when displayed outside but fees would apply if the locomotive is temporarily moved inside the exhibition hall where other large locomotives are located.
