	<title>Comments on: The &#8216; B &#8216; ends of units, commonly ignored&#8230;


The ONR unit is 1953 built GMD FP7A #1519, the lead unit is #1517, both awaiting assignment to daily train #129 Northland.


The #6351 is a 1957 built RDC &#8211; 3 (with 49 seats) as CN #D351 &amp; converted for VIA to RDC-2 configuration ( 71 seats).


And yes, the coach end of RDC-2&#8242;s and RDC-3&#8242;  are the &#8216; B &#8216;


Units on the left are unknown GMD &#8216;B&#8217; units &amp; I&#8217;m sure someone out there can tell the difference between the &#8216; A &#8216; end and &#8216; B &#8216; end of a GMD &#8216; B &#8216; unit. 


Walk into the roundhouse office, sign the release, grab a hard hat and go off exploring at CN Spadina, April 24, 1980 Kodachrome by S.Danko
