Another one of Canadian National's Northerns stored at Mimico Yard during the end of the steam era: CN 6201 (U2g-class, built in June 1942 by MLW) sits dead at Mimico with its drive rods off (sitting on the running boards), bell missing, and no coal in her tender. She would be scrapped a few months later in April 1960.

    Notice the brass number plate under the headlight is also missing—a very desireable railroad artifact in someone’s collection.
