Comments on: CN’s budd cars; or ‘railiners’ were a very common sight thru Bayview back in the day when CN served many secondary passenger routes. However, it wasn’t very common to see five of them making up a train to Niagara Falls and back. Bit of a surprise on this relatively warm December afternoon nearly 50 years ago.

Conventional equipment would return to the branchlines during this period. I’m not sure if this arrangement continued in the years following.
