Caption: At Courtenay, the north end of CP’s Dayliner passenger service on Vancouver Island, a wye was used to turn the car to always have the baggage compartment leading, but in the Spring of 1972 that wye was removed, so changing ends became normal practice, with the result seen here on Friday 1973-06-02 as E&N southbound train No. 2 with Budd/CC&F RDC2 CP 9199 eases to a flagstop at Union Bay at mileage 130.2 of the Victoria subdivision, baggage compartment trailing but precisely on time at 1213 PDT.
