I have to agree that the location of the photo is doubtful for Vancouver. I
don't have perfect recal of every brick warehouse in the background of
photos in Drake and N-yards, but the building in this photo isn't one I'm
immediately familiar with.

I have a gut feeling that the print of 463 is mislabelled Vancouver. It is
Victoria. 460 to 463 (and othe rD4g's, viz 479) were Island locomotives and
were replaced sometime after this photograph was imaged. They were replaced
by D10's.
The RPO in this view is also seen with 479. I recently viewed on a world
wide steam URL.
