Thanks, Marty Date: 01/06/17 00:41 Re: What Can You Tell Me About These 6 Please Author: BoostedFridge Yes, this is the Canadian. The picture is taken facing RR east. I can't tell for certain if this is the eastbound #2, or westbound #1.
The 1981 VIA timetable shows the westbound was due in to Field at 14:55, and the eastbound at 16:55, so I would hazard a guess that this is the westbound based on the amount of light out in December in the picture.

This was during the time the Canadian ran via the Kingston Subdivision between Toronto and Montreal with the through cars from Vancouver added to a corridor train.....including the Park Car.
