Nostalgia & History > CN Railiner in Dec 1971

CN RDC Railiner at New Glasgow NS in December 1971

---

Nice. I logged many miles on RDC's.

Anybody here from the Niagara region? Back in the 70's a friend and I were shooting at Feeder (East?) by the Welland Canal. I remember that the operator had an unusual name for the RDC's that we had not heard before (I don't think it was Railiner). If you could throw out some CN-ish RDC nicknames it might jog my memory. Thanks!

A very interesting photo.  Really like RDCs.  I remember Dec 1971 being a cold month in the US also.

The CPR called their RDCs "Dayliners".
