The three photographs 2551a, 2551b, and 2551c were taken one morning early in August, 1958, at Rockingham, NS, the location of CN's general freight yard on the shores of Bedford Basin, at the north end of the city of Halifax. My notes from the time say that the train was DAR M-26. It is shown arriving and heading for the CN interchange, and then (the final image) sitting at the platform of Rockingham station with only the baggage/express car and caboose left, as it readies to depart for Halifax Station, at Ocean Terminals. Although indicated as a mixed train the rare passenger would have ridden in the caboose. Ian MacDonald
