Comments on: With her “Extra” flags straining, M-636 #4739 leads the charge through Scarborough, circa 1976. Built by MLW six years earlier, the locomotive was retired in ’93, un-retired in ’94, and re-retired in ’95. Check out Timothy Wakeman’s great shot of #4739 taken in 1987… http://www.railpictures.ca/?attachment_id=15057 The second and third units are a couple of C-630’s. Both were built in 1968. #4504 served until ’91. #4500 lasted with the CPR until 1993. She was then donated to the York-Durham Heritage Railway Society in Uxbridge, Ontario. Shortly thereafter the locomotive ended up south of the 49th. http://www.railpictures.ca The BEST Canadian photos on the Internet, eh?

The empty multis on the head end are probably for Walkerville near Windsor. Most daytime London bound trains from about noon until late evening ran as extras. This looks like a London bound train.

Love that consist, and it appears the forth unit is a C-424. That 4500 has a bit of a history. I remember seeing it stored alongside the CN Oakville Sub near Trafalgar Road in Oakville, circa late 1993/early 1994. It had been donated to an individual, iirc, who stored it here and there for a time before selling it to the Arkansas & Missouri, who eventually sold it to the Western New York & Pennsylvania RR, where it currently resides. The for-profit sale of what was a donated locomotive soured CP's view of future donations, to the severe dismay of at least one foamer I know. Great shot, Peter!
