That brings up another question: is there reasonably accessible
published information about RDC assignments from the time they were

the period, one can see which trains had Dayliners assigned to them,

unit assignments.

I am also looking for information on the type, not necessarily the unit
number, of RDC's assigned to the Toronto/Detroit run in 1956/57.
I understand from others that 3 coaches (RDC1's) ran together for at
least part of the time, but I believe that I saw a picture of an RDC-1,
an RDC-2 and an RDC-3 running together on this route. Would CPR run
its mail contract during this period on any of the other regular
scheduled Toronto/Chicago trains rather than the Dayliner? Any help?
