On a trip out to Canadian National Railway's Mimico Yard, Bruce Lowe captured a pair of CNR's CLC CFA-16-4 units 8704 (built 1952) and 8722 (built 1953) in the servicing area near the roundhouse (behind photographer).  Only 15 at the time, this was one of Bruce's outings with noted Toronto photographer James Victor Salmon who also shot this pair on this day.  The units would be renumbered to the 9300 series in 1956 and retired during the 1960s.
