Caption: The new image of CN: GMD FP9 6525 and CLC CPA16-5 6704, both in fresh zebra stripes and sporting the new CN "noodle" logo, bracket F9B 6621 in the older green, black and yellow livery as they pull into the station at Brockville with a westbound passenger train. The new modern logo and livery (first unveiled in 1961) was still in its infancy at the time of this photo, evident by the passenger and head-end baggage and express cars all still sporting the older paint scheme (if one looks closely, there appears to be a maroon private car on the tail end).
In the background are the nearby CP freight sheds, with 40' boxcars spotted at the loading platforms.
Original photographer unknown (slide labeled "Stewart" on the back), Dan Dell'Unto collection slide.
