I've always been a big fan of these old F units.  Bayview Junction was a great place to grab a good shot of any that passed thru, with the low speed restrictions as well as many trains being held at signal to the Oakville sub.  This is such an example. Having 6771 stop made for a great photo opportunity. The earliest paint scheme for VIA featured a few variations of the style of a yellow nose and the CN noodle applied in red. That was short lived, replaced by a red (or a rare blue) VIA as seen here. Only a couple of years went by and the scheme reverted to a plain yellow nose.
