VIA Rail 80s Budd 'Park' Series Dome

VIA Rail Budd Observation Dome

In July 1954, CP received the first of 36 'Scenic Domes' from Budd, 18 sleeper - observation - Lounges, and 18 coach - buffet - lounges to equip the 'Dominion' and the new 'Canadian'. 33 cars were on the property in 1954, with the final 3 coaches (515-517) delivered the following year.

The Canadian required 7 trainsets to serve Montreal - Vancouver, and the Dominion, due to a slower schedule, required 8 sets. Also, each train operated a Toronto-Sudbury section that was also dome equipped, thus the 18 car orders.

The 'Park' series observation cars (each named after a Canadian park) were built with 3 double bedrooms, a drawing room, an under-dome cocktail bar and a lounge.

All cars became VIA property in August 1978 (5 months after VIA began).
