Other than the wrong paint scheme on the FPA4, this is a great photo.

Great scene, John. Not many photos out there of Weston station. Nice contrast between the new scheme on 6773 and the maple leaf logo on the freight shed end of the building.

I’ll chime in and say this is my favorite CN livery of all time. The 1960 passenger stripes! This area sure has gone through some immense face-lifts over the years

Great scene that’s much changed today! The siding to the right would have went to Dominion Food & Milling. It looks like there’s an Missouri Pacific boxcar spotted on what’s shown as the customs/bond/team track behind the station (the interchange tracks were closer to the CP tracks).
