BCR 725 M-630W displays proper seasonal weathering at North Vancouver during a January 1985 visit. The M630W's were interesting big MLW power with the Canadian full width cab. However they did not have BCR Radio Control Equipment so were often assigned as trailing units or MU'ed with RC equipment in helper assignments. Also of interest is the early two tone green paint scheme without nose stripes or two level 'lightning' stripe on the long hood.
The BCR Roster on TrainWeb says this unit is from a group of 8 units purchased in 1973 and left the roster in 1991 eventually finding their way to operations in Mexico.
