Coupled behind wooden van No. 437130, CP heavyweight coach No. 1303 carries the markers as Truro-Windsor mixed M22 drifts through Clarksville, Nova Scotia on April 24, 1975. Remarkably, the Truro mixed survived into the VIA era and was not discontinued until the end of April 1979. CP 1303, on of 15 1929-vintage heavyweight coaches built at National Steel Car and completed at Angus Shops, is still in existance. Christened the Micmac, the car was used in Ottawa by the National Museum of Science and Technology excursion train in the 1980s. The Museum transferred the coach to the the British Columbia Chapter of the National Railway Historical Society in June 2000 and it is now preserved in New Westminister, British Columbia.
