SP was short on chair cars in the early sixties with all the upgrading going on to the Daylight cars, but didn't want to spend anymore money on new equipment ( they bought 9 from the CNW used in 1961) for the COSF and Overland. They took non revenue equipment ( lounges amd parlor cars) that they felt was unneeded and jammed as many seats in them as they could.
