Railpictures.ca - A.W.Mooney Photo: Nice morning, spring in the air, and the 0930-ish daily CP Budds from Toronto to Buffalo are at least something to point the camera at this time while hoping an interesting freight might show soon. CP 9112-9070 look good; I don’t think we yet envisioned the day when Budd cars would become as scarce as hen’s teeth..as they are now. Yet in 2 years this train would be history. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography

Trailing car is likely 9020 (there was no 9070 RDC-1 not RDC-3 depicted).

Albert, very nice indeed, and something that we all took for granted. This CP RDC duo, 9122-9020 were regulars on CP-TH&B-NYC Buffalo runs, and there was always at least an RDC-2 to handle checked baggage service which lasted until the end. Very much appreciate you photographing this train in different locations including Fort Erie. Thanks for sharing.
