FP9 6520, F9B 6632, and an unidentified CPB16-5/CPA16-5 combination lead an eastbound train through Bayview on a dull day in late 1967 or early 1968 (this Kodachrome slide processed January 1968). While passenger locomotives have largely been repainted into the "new" CN scheme, four of nine cars in this train are still the 1954 green and black paint--including two clerestory roof cars; older cars such as these would start to be retired in the early 1970s as CN began to retreat from aggressive passenger train marketing.
