Sunday May 13, 1962 CNR 6167 Excursion

     On Sunday May 7, 1961, CNR 6167 pulled an excursion sponsored by the Don Valley Conservation Authority, from Toronto to Cobourg and Return. Upon arrival at Cobourg, the excursionists had the option of taking bus tours out of Cobourg. Thanks to Rob Burnet for supplying me with a flyer for this trip and Jim Brown for his photo. This flyer included the same photo of 6153 that the DVCA used with their flyer for the May 7, 1961 excursion, but this time every instance of the numeral "53" was scratched out on the photo. This photo was also quite blatantly used as the basis for a drawing included in another flyer for a 6167 excursion, the October 21, 1962 trip sponsored by the London South Lions.
