On a CN-VIA 81 out of London, FP9 6526 in the VIA colours heads westbound with 4 cars in CN's previous passenger scheme at Hyde Park, from Denfield Road bridge.

Initially VIA locos carried a large CN noodle on the nose, as VIA was created in 1976 as a marketing brand for CN's passenger services. It would not yet be a separate operation until becoming a Crown Corporation of the government on April 1st 1978.
