SWEEPING CHANGES
in weal service are announced by the, i
Canadian National Railways, made pos-
sible by the introduction of its new
passenger rolling stock. Dinette cars,
parlor -grill, buffet -parlor and sleeper -
grills will offer budget priced meals to
travellers on many of the ONR's, main,
line trains, For the first time since pre-
war years, meals costing Tess than a
dollar will be featured regularly in these
cars. The innovations mark another
step in the CNR's aim to provide the
public, in addition- to new and smartly
designed passenger equipment, a type
of dining car 'service at prices suitable
to the budgets of coach as well as
sleeping car travellers. Service in the
grill class cars, or "coffee shops on
wheels", and the 'dinettes will be
operated continuously throughout the
day and evening. Four new dinette cars,
shown upper picture, are in trains 1 and
2 between Montreal and Winnipeg in
place of the customary dining cars. In
addition, to regular dining cars, buffet
cars offer coffee shop privileges on the
second leg of the trip between Winnipeg
and Vancouver.' Regular dining `cars
remain on trains 3 and 4, between
Toronto and Vancouver; but these are
supplemented by new sleeper -grill cars,
