Hi Cyrus, check this Angus Shops van post from my blog, Trackside Treasure:
http://tracksidetreasure.blogspot.ca/2010/05/cp-angus-shops-vans.html ;
http://tracksidetreasure.blogspot.ca/2010/05/cp-angus-shops-vans.html
in which all the photos from 1981-1985 show the end storm doors open. In the
post, I mention that it is somewhat difficult to find a photo of the vans with
the storm door shut, although this may not hold true for winter.
Manny Jacob had partnered with Athabasca Shops to produce the storm doors in
scale.
Hope this helps,

List,
Pardon my lack of knowledge but what were the purpose of the storm doors on CP
Rail's vans and what was the period of use? Thanks,
