STK-ID 8395

Several POINT OF VIEW SHOTs from the side of a moving train of the passing scenery as the train carrying John Diefenbaker's body approaches Thunder Bay, then pulls into the station where a large crowd of people are waiting. Several shots from different angles of mourners paying their last respects to Diefenbaker. His flag-draped casket is seen through the open doors of the special rail car carrying his body west for burial. Royal Canadian Mounted Police officers stand guard on either side of the open railcar doors.
