The Dominion (train)
The Dominion was a Canadian transcontinental passenger train operated by the Canadian Pacific Railway. It first began as a summer service between Toronto, Ontario and Vancouver, British Columbia, operating in 1931 and 1932. Effective June 23, 1933 it replaced the "Imperial Limited" as the CPR's main transcontinental service and included a Montreal, Quebec – Sudbury, Ontario section. It remained CPR's flagship train until the introduction of the stainless steel dome streamliner "The Canadian" on 24 April 1955. In 1960 the train was reconfigured as a "transcontinental local" service on the same route as the "Canadian" to  provide services on shorter trips. "The Dominion" had previously carried a large amount of mail and express parcels, which afterward was carried on fast freights as well as on "The Canadian". This reduced "The Dominion" to a typical consist of four coaches and a baggage car. The service was eliminated officially in February 1966 but continued on as the "Expo Limited" (serving the Montreal World's Fair) for much of 1967.
