Royal Visit to Canada, 1951

Prince Phillip is the tall man in the belted tan camel-coat on the left.
Princess Elizabeth in the long fur coat is holding a bouquet of flowers.

The tour took place before Elizabeth became Queen. At the time of the
tour, her father King George VI was very ill. The royal party arrived
by plane in Montreal on October 8 1951, and the tour lasted 33 days.

The other people standing with them beside the railroad tracks are unidentified.
The two children are dressed in uniforms of the Cub Scouts and Brownies
(wrongly identified as a Boy Scout and Girl Guide in the LAC descriptor).
Although the location of this image isn't given, from the clothes, the surroundings, and the
weather conditions, it was most likely taken on one of their stops in western Canada.

National Archives of Canada, Reference number R1196-14-7-E,
Photograph is from the National Film Board of Canada, Still Photography Division
