Via 6414 was photographed from the Frank Lane overpass west of London on January 31, 2008.

Promotional wraps have been applied to a variety of Via's 6400-series F40PH-2 locomotives over the years.  Some were more attractive than others.  In 2006 unit 6414 was decked out in a brownish colour scheme advertising Loto-Quebec's "La Poule aux Oeufs d'Or" (The Golden Egg Chicken) campaign.  This engine was leading Via #85 westward at Frank Lane on the Strathroy Subdivision on January 31, 2008.
