Default Canadian Renault tanks

Does anyone have photos of the trainload of FT17's that the USA sold Canada for twenty bucks a ton, thus getting around the arms embargo? They were used for training down East. Not very realistic in the '40's, but better than nothing. The Germans used them for tractors as late as 1944! Probably the first really practical tank, even if it was French!
