Looks like conductor is just simply waving to the camera man. Fickled finger of fate??

Just a wave, I was a fellow employee in those days.

Back in these good old days he would have been either a head brakeman or a fireman. The conductor and rear brakeman got to bounce around in the caboose. I think CNW was still using firemen on some runs at this time, but am not sure.
