Just before CN donated the 1437, former VIA now Waterloo Central Railway RDC1's 6135 and 6148 (purchased in October 2020) are seen sitting at the North end of West yard waiting for forwarding on CN 533/566 to their new homes. The WCR has plans to restore 6135 to it's original CP 9072 look of 1958, and restore 6148 (an RDC1 converted from an RDC2) to it's CP 9114 look from 1957. A delightful surprise on my way into work, another great reason to show up early when you can help it. You never know! Taken by an off duty employee while wearing all required PPE.

    Interesting information, thank you. Added incentive to visit the WCR once life returns to that kind of normal. Nice pic too, BTW.

    Nice capture of the RDC’s together before delivery.

    WCR has since patched-out the CN markings on 1437.
