I believe it was the first Saturday in June 1970 when fellow railfan John Woodworth and I crossed into Sarnia only a few minutes prior to CN 6218's leaving on an eastbound excursion. The early morning was cloudy with a slight trace of fog. We found her by an unknown park where I believe the boarding was taking place
Here is CN 6218 just a few minutes before its departure. At the far left is a photographer taking a photo of the child with 6218 in the background.

  1. Wow. This is a really classic shot. Well done.

  2. Can you imagine a time when scores of these beautiful locomotives scoured the CNR, coast to coast?
    Happy National Birthday, my Canadian friends!
