I don't have a specific answer to your question as to whether cans were
handled from West Burke to Barnet for processing and if so how. But
there is ample photographic evidence showing a can car on the headend
of the southbound "Alouette" in that era so there was certainly a way
to do it. Also, after the CP 'milk' came off in the early '50s much of
the milk, both loads and empties, was handled on the CP freights you
mentioned.
