- Caption from metadata for 535-1595-1: "Al Russell checks some of the remedial work done by the Skytrain construction project to protect Stoney Creek. When dirty, contaminated water from the Lougheed Highway was running off into the creek, crews built a culvert into riprap, and laid down absorbent pads to filter contaminents."
- Caption from metadata for 535-1595-2: "Jennifer Hechison surveys Stoney Creek from a footbridge and upgraded path built by the GVRD and conservationists. But the upgrades end below the Skytrain construction project, and Hechison says it's up to the public to remain vigilant that Skytrain live up to its commitments to protect the creek."

- Photograph of a paved road lined with electric poles on both sides and a wood plank sidewalk on one side of the road. There are two men in suits and bowler hats riding bicycles and another man in suit and bowler hat standing on the sidewalk. The sun is casting long shadows from the left side of the photograph. An earlier catalogue record from 1988 conjectures that the photograph may be of Kingsway in Burnaby, possibly near Gilley looking east towards Griffiths Avenue. The record also dates the negative, ca. 1914.
