Trains 605/6 and 607/8 do not appear in the CNR System Timetables for 1955 or
56. There is, however, a note to the effect that the Montreal & Southern
Counties folder (Suburban folder from 1956-04-29 to 1956-06-02) should be
consulted for the full service on the Montreal-Granby-Waterloo-Farnham route.
The full service as of 1956-06-03 is in the System Timetable and it is entirely
700-series trains.
Based on that, I would hazard a guess that 606/6/7/8 might have been M&SC
services from the McGill St. terminal.

Excuse my ignorance but where would these trains have originated on the CNR
and can anyone tell me anything about them?
