Some more pictures from the Al Gradwell collection, via Tim Swaddling. This is car #96, according to the stories Tim passes along, this is a former CN car, painted up in this shot in the VIA colours. This car was used by VIA to train new employees. Maybe one of our railfans out there can chime in with some details.

In the background of this one is a neat view of the Peabody Bridge along with a view of the old Walkerville Tower. Maybe the railfans out there can add something about the tower too?
