Several years later, the exact date is not known , the station, engine house and rolling s tock of the L'Assom ption Rail way were destroyed by fire . Jason C.

The t\'l0 sister s ' However , some railway officials see t~em as a "cure- all" for the ills of railway passenger service, and that is the outlook with which we must diaagree . The RDC has many advantages , but it al so has disadvantages , which mainly accrue to t he passengers who use these cars , when compared with modern, locomotive-hauled cars. One of the chief definiencies is that , the Pacific Great Eastern excepted , no provision is made for mea l servi ce . RDC cars are ncW used on several runs where the time consumed.'exceeds four hours, and wh ere the schedule covers normal meal periods . In many cases , ~h_ trains which were supplanted by RDC services had buffet- coach, bl.l.. ~ 'C>~ t_ parlour or c~fe - parlour service. For example the exampl e the "l]:;t: liner" service betvleen Yarmouth and Halifax NS on the Dominion f.tJ 1n tic llailway requires 6 hours and 10 minutes eastbound, 6 hours end 15 minutes we:=;tbound . At Digby J it connects with the SS PRINCE3S H,·,J·gr.rz which carries passengers from Saint John , with Montreal and Bo ~~ on connections . If these passengers' appetites are disturbed by the sea voyage , they will probably not hc:. ve any opportunity to eat between the morning leaving time of the steamer from Saint John, a nd the arri val of the "Dayliner ll in Ha lifax at 6: 35 PI.l . Another disadvantage of the RDC units gener ally used i s that they are not equipped with reclining seats . Most of the day coaches built in recent years ~ave been so equipped and many trains replaced by RDC. services had reclining seat coaches. Thus we have , in effect, a down grading of service to the passenger s . RDC units are not permitted to haul other cars as trailers, and this limits the reserve capacity. Passenger traffic on many Canadian railways varies greatly from day t o day, usually rising to peak load l evel on weekends. Also, special groups move from time to t i me by trains, such as school cl asses , C.R .H. A. News Report - 1957 Page 43 clubs, teams, tours, etc . Vlith an ordinary train , extra equipment can usually be added to take care of these r equirements . With a limited number of RnCs assi.gned to a terminal passenger capacity is strictly limited. In add~tion , no special services, such as l ounge, parlour, buffet or sl~eping facilities, can be provided for special parties as on an ordinary t.rain. Therefore , as RDCs become more common, train travel will become less popular with these groups . The RDC tends to reduce all train travel to a Ilcommon denomin ator". Parlour cars are ma inly operated for those who wish t.o have a quiet journey separated from rowdy individuals and noisy e:I-,l l dr'3n who , unfortunately, often travel in coac!1es . They are wi l liag to pay extra for increasen comfort, in this sense . H C"l ev~r , tb~:'e are as yet no "parlour'l RDCs and passengers must travel itcoach class ,l . Although the ROC is a smooth-riding car, the noise and vibration of the Wlder-floor engines, particularly when accelerating, reduces the comfort le;rel to considerabl y l ess than that of an ordinary passenger car. This becomes tiring, expecially on a long journey, and makes rail travel little better than riding in an automobile or motor bus . The baggage service is one of the chief advantages that railway travel has over other forms of passenger transport . Passen gers can have trunkS , bicycles , skis, dogs and even canoes forwarded with them on a train. However, some RDC services have only a small baggage space , and some , particularly on the Canadian Pacific sub sidiaries, the Dominion Atlantic, Quebec Central and Esquimalt & Nanaimo railways , have no baggage service whatsoever. \'lith all of these disadvantages , where should RDCs be used? There are qUite a number of lines \-There sisable towns receive only mediocire passenger serVice, ~~ th outdated equipment and slow sched ules . Examples of such lines a r e Canadi an National' s Ha lifax-Yarmouth, Moncton- Saint John (equipment good but schedul es slow), Montreal Granby":,, Waterloo , Hamil ton- 3imcoe-fill sonburg- St . Thomas, Longlacl.. Fort William , London-Palmerston-Kincardine- Southampton , and Canadian Pacific's Trois Ri vieres- Shawinigan Falls- Grand ' Mere, Montreal - J o l~ ::~t e St. Gabriel Ottawa-Prescott , Kineston- Renfrew, Orangeville- Tee.!:;\ojn-o:or , Woodstock-St . Thomas and Woodstock-Tillsonburg routes. On both sY3 tems there are a l arge number of lines in western Canad ~ where p-1.s~one:( ~ l· service was greatly reduced, but coul d be revita l ized by an i nfus:on of ROCs . Many of these lines have onl y a s l ow mixed train SeI'vi.c0 which carries passengers who onl y ride as a l ast resort. Can we blame them? Introduction of modern RDC service "lOuld have to be accompanied by an agross ive publicity campaign, with paid advertising in we~kly newspaper 3, the edi tors of wh i ch a r e influential among the people of smaller commun i ties. Another point is that whe r e running time is reduced by the use of ROC equipment , schedul es of connecting lines shoul d be alter ed to mak e convenient connections . Connections are often the answer to continued good patronage . This wa$ most obvious with the discontin uance of trains 17 and 18 by the C.P. R. between Montreal and Sudbury, which formerly offered close connections wi th the tlDayliner" between :r.1attawa and Ang liers . This is now a five- hour connection, with No.9 and a 4 hour, 27 minute connection with No . 8 a t 14attawa. Patronage has suffered to the extent that it would not be surprising if the service reverts to mixed trains , one of these days . C.R.H.A . News Report - 19 57 Page 44 Simil arly, local services on main lines l end themsel ves well to use of RDC equipment , but schedules should be arr anged to make con venient connections "lith throngh t.rains a nd trai ns of other routes .
