4489 ''Dominion of Canada'' is an LNER Class A4 steam locomotive. She is a 4-6-2 locomotive built to the same design by Sir Nigel Gresley as the more famous ''Mallard''. There were 35 A4 locomotives built in total. Originally numbered 4489, she was renumbered 10 on 10 May 1946, under the LNER 1946 renumbering scheme of Edward Thompson and, after nationalisation in 1948, British Railways added 60000 to its number so it became 60010 on 27 October 1948. It was renumbered back to 4489 following a cosmetic restoration at the National Railway Museum in York during late 2012 and early 2013. == Liveries ==
''Dominion of Canada'' has worn many liveries throughout her career. When released into traffic, 4489 wore garter blue livery. The coat of arms of Canada was on the side of the cab and a CPR-type bell mounted ahead of the single chimney. As a livery variation, a stainless steel strip ran along the bottom of the valances and tender and the numbers and letters of the locomotive and tender were also stainless steel. This was due to the use of this locomotive and the other A4s named after British Commonwealth countries, on the ''Coronation'' service in order to match with the rolling stock. Other A4s named after British Commonwealth countries were (BR numbers) 60009 ''Union of South Africa'', 60011 ''Empire of India'', 60012 ''Commonwealth of Australia'' and 60013 ''Dominion of New Zealand''. The bell was removed from 60010 ''Dominion of Canada'' when the chimney was replaced with a Kylchap double blastpipe and chimney on 27 December 1957. The stainless steel strip was removed along with the valances, but was left on the tender and simply painted over. Due to the position of the cabside coat of arms, the works plates were relocated inside the cab. The coat of arms of Canada worn on the side of the cabs were removed on 8 April 1949, but the works plates were not moved back. The next livery worn was wartime black with LNER on the tender on 21 February 1942. On 27 November 1943 the livery was modified to read just 'NE'. ''Dominion of Canada'' regained her LNER garter blue with extra red/white lining on 20 November 1947. British Railways dark blue with black and white lining was applied on 29 September 1950. The final change to British Railways brunswick green was on 8 May 1952.
